21.01.2022 BEUYS 2021 Please join us on May 12 for a special Symposium and experimental Workshop STANDING SOLID GROUND... Bueys + Yunkaporta - An Experimental Workshop 100 years of joseph beuys: What do our thoughts, our feelings and desires have to do with sculpture? Is art the only revolutionary force? Is the future a category of art? Are these even the questions we need to be asking? 100 years after the birth of Joseph Beuys the state of North Rhine-Westphalia is re-articulating these questions so fundamental to both his art and thought. As part of the centenary celebration beuys 2021. 100 years of joseph beuys numerous exhibitions, actions and performances, plays, concerts, lectures and seminars are set to explore the equally fascinating and controversial ideas of one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. Some 25 institutions in 13 cities across the world invite visitors to enter into conversation with Beuys and to examine his significance both for the international art world and for society at large. Most of all they inspire us to consider what democracy and freedom mean, how the relationship between politics and art might be thought of today and what is to be done. Joseph Beuys Cafe represents the Australian wing of Beuys2021 - we invite you to a experimental workshop and seminar at 369 Gore St, Fitzroy featuring an exhibition of Beuys work from Ian Georges private collection installed in this remarkable warehouse space.

19.01.2022 Jean-Paul Sartre said ‘Hell is Other People’. However, it is through knowing ‘the other’ that we can be both the ‘Redeemed and Redeemer’ (Wagner Opera Parsifal). We become unable to escape the observation of ‘the other’ (or ourselves) through walking with an examined life. Perhaps freedom lives in ‘the other’? ... These and other questions of ‘Social Sculpture’ lie in wait at the Joseph Beuys Cafe in 2021.
