annotation

Many elements and parts from Beuys's actions ultimately flowed into his objects, which were mostly arranged on shelves or showcases. Rudiments of a few installations and environments were later integrated into collections and thus merged again per se into an entire installation, such as the Beuys block in Darmstadt .
