A sweeping exhibition of Joseph Beuys multiples from the Reinhard Schlegl collection is currently on display at Mitchell-Innes & Nash in New York City. The show includes 500 works and ephemera spanning the 1960s to 1980s, with familiar forms like a felt-laden sled, a Fluxus violin, and Capri Battery, a lemon-powered lightbulb. An array of exhibition posters, manifestos, documents, and even a video performance projection create a view into Beuys’s practice that is unusually historically comprehensive for a commercial gallery exhibition.
