On the occasion of the exhibition "Joseph Beuys. Condensation Cores, Idea Carriers and Vehicles", the Bad Reichenhall Art Academy is organising a panel discussion on the topic of "Joseph Beuys and the Social Sculpture".

Joseph Beuys radically expanded the traditional idea of art in the 1960s. He moved away from the idea of sculpture as a material object. Instead, he was interested in society as the material of design.

Stefan Wimmer, Director of the Kunstakademie invited Dr. Maria Schindelegger, Director of the museum DASMAXIMUM to talk about the project "Eichenpflanzungen zu Ehren von Joseph Beuys" as an example of social sculpture and Joseph Beuys' expanded concept of art:
