Joseph Beuys – Ja Ja Ja Nee Nee Nee. The voice of one of the twentieth century's most radical artists, captured in sound. Released in 1970, this legendary document presents Beuys in pure vocal performance—no instruments, no mediation, just the artist's voice as raw material and conceptual force. Recorded live, Beuys transforms language into rhythm, mantra, and protest. The repetitions of "Ja Ja Ja" and "Nee Nee Nee" become hypnotic incantations, political gestures, and sonic sculptures. This is Beuys extending his concept of social sculpture into the realm of sound—art as direct communication, voice as transformative energy. The original pressing is exceptionally rare and represents a crucial intersection of conceptual art, performance, and experimental sound. For collectors who understand that Beuys' influence extends far beyond the gallery walls, this is an essential artifact. A document where art, politics, and sound converge with uncompromising intensity. Edition of 500 numbered and stamped copies. Gatefold sleeve with integrated 12-page booklet, 11 full page b/w photographies, number and stamp on last page
