Blackboard Drawings

'Viewed in retrospect, ... , they seem uncannily like contemporary art in their emphasis on the present moment and the process of creation as well as in their skepticism of progress, analysis and specialization'.

Joseph Beuys & Rudolf Steiner

Imagination, Inspiration, Intuition

26 October 2007 to 17 February 2008

Joseph Beuys & Rudolf Steiner: Imagination, Inspiration, Intuition is an important loan exhibition that examines the connections between the art of Joseph Beuys (1921-1986) and the teachings of Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925). Beuys’ Directive forces of a new society (or Richtkräfte) from the Hamburger Bahnhof, Berlin, is a seminal installation of 100 blackboards and is on exhibition for the first time in Australia. It was created by this influential German artist during the exhibition Art into Society, Society into Art at the Institute for Contemporary Art (ICA), London in 1974. Forty-two of Steiner’s chalk drawings from between 1919 and 1924 will be exhibited with Beuys’ Richtkräfte, providing a unique opportunity for the general public to engage with the ideas of these two men through a visual medium. http://www.ngv.vic.gov.au/beuysandsteiner/index.html
