Rare Rarity: "Gespräche mit Künstlern" – Double signed by Joseph Beuys & Klaus Staeck (1983)
Up for sale is a very special piece of contemporary art history for art collectors and Beuys enthusiasts: The book "Gespräche mit Künstlern" (Conversations with Artists) by Amine Haase (Wienand Verlag Köln).
The absolute highlight of this copy are **two original signatures** on the inside from two of the most important figures of the German postwar avant-garde:
Joseph Beuys: Original signature in blue ink above his portrait.
Klaus Staeck: Original signature with precise date from 10.4.83 above his chapter.
Why this book is special:
This is a fascinating document of the close friendship and artistic/political collaboration between Beuys and Staeck. Klaus Staeck was not only Beuys' close friend and publisher (Edition Staeck), but as a lawyer, he also frequently represented him in legal matters surrounding his radical art actions. The combination of both signatures from 1983 makes this book an extraordinary collector's item.
