Darmstädter Werkblock

Before the Hessen State Museum in Darmstadt restored the Block Beuys (1949–1972), the last installation of works put together by Joseph Beuys himself, Tacita Dean had the opportunity to document the vacant rooms with her camera. Her approach stands in close relation to Beuys’ own work: She focuses on the spatial details and the wall coverings’ patches and flaws. Darmstädter Werkblock consists of eight photogravures, depicting Dean’s very own perspective on Beuys’ intense microcosm.
