Spazierstock (Cane/Copper Stick)
1968
Joseph Beuys' "Spazierstock" is a simple walking stick crafted from copper that exemplifies his conceptual approach to sculpture and everyday objects. Created as part of his broader artistic practice of elevating humble, utilitarian items into meaningful artworks, the piece reflects Beuys' belief that art could emerge from commonplace materials and actions. The work invites viewers to consider the relationship between movement, human presence, and the potential for transformation inherent in ordinary things.
