"Edizione notturna" 1987 newspaper page mounted on paper, with collage of two collotype and silkscreen prints cm 76x57 Signed and numbered 72/90 at the lower edge Publisher: Galerie Kluser and Editions Schellmann, Munich As a tribute to Joseph Beuys, Jannis Kounellis incorporated one of his characteristic black-and-white drawings into the Italian daily newspaper Corriere della Sera, creating this edition. Part of the newspaper thus becomes the support for the work, while another section is torn away by Kounellis in a performative gesture of sacrifice. Through this symbolic act, the artist alludes to the transformative power of matter and the radical renewal of art, elements that also characterised Beuys's artistic practice (https://www.schellmannart.com/en/works/225/jannis-kounellis-edizione-notturna) IT "Edizione notturna" 1987 pagina di giornale applicata su carta, con collage di due stampe al collotipo e serigrafiche cm 76x57 Firmato e numerato 72/90 in basso Editore: Galerie Kluser e Editions Schellmann, Monaco In omaggio a Joseph Beuys, Jannis Kounellis ha integrato uno dei suoi caratteristici disegni in bianco e nero nel quotidiano italiano Corriere della Sera, realizzando questa edizione.
