OAK PLANTING IN HONOR OF JOSEPH BEUYS
MOUTH OF THE RIVER ALZ, SEEBRUCK HARBOUR

On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Lions International, the Lions Club Chiemsee-Bedaium, with the support of the Foundation DASMAXIMUM, realized an "Oak Planting in Honor of Joseph Beuys" at the harbor at the Alz River in Seebruck. Especially the social aspect of Beuys' planting campaign at documenta7 in Kassel motivated the Lions Club for the planting, as the purpose of the association is to people in need. The planting of the oak tree and the placing of the stele happened on Friday, 27 October 2017 at 16:00 at the harbour entrance right in front of the Alz bridge. The director of the museum DASMAXIMUM, Dr. Birgit Löffler, explained the art work and planting process. Words of welome to the community of Seeon-Seebruck were spoken by mayor Bernd Ruth.

The planting was initiated by Dr. Peter Lämmerhirdt, secretary of the Lions Club in Seebruck and chairman of the Foundation DASMAXIMUM . He had also succeeded in locating one of the few quarries that still keep large basalt columns for retail sale. The stone was donated by Lions president a.D. Christian Schuchert.
