Museum Schloss Moyland

MARCH 15 – SEPTEMBER 6

Daniele Formica in conversation with Joseph Beuys. This research-based exhibition places the contemporary performative artistic practice of the Italian-Dutch artist Daniele Formica (b. 1996, Perugia) in dialogue with the historical perspective of the internationally acclaimed German artist Joseph Beuys (1921–1986), who died in 1986. Museum Schloss Moyland has invited Daniele Formica to familiarize himself with the Joseph Beuys archive and the extensive collection during numerous on-site residencies, drawing on relevant search terms and themes from his own artistic perspective. For the exhibition, Formica will produce new site-specific artworks, including text-based works, a video performance, a large-scale ready-made, and a performance installation that responds to Joseph Beuys’s action *Siberian Symphony* (1963). The accompanying catalog brings the exhibition’s dialogic form to life.
