{"product_id":"9781636811505","title":"Joseph Beuys: In Defense of Nature","description":"\u003cb\u003eAuthor: Beuys, Joseph\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGrounded in The Broad’s collection of multiples by Joseph Beuys, 'In Defense of Nature' centres the German artist’s commitment to environmental justice. The project traces Beuys’ long history of activism, from founding alternative organisations such as the Organization for Direct Democracy to his involvement in Germany’s Green Party, and finally to his last major project, '7,000 Oaks', which involved planting 7,000 trees accompanied by stones, from 1982 to 1987. Beuys’ concept inspired 'Social Forest: Oaks of Tovaangar', a reforestation project in Los Angeles inaugurated as part of the PST ART initiative. With programs that address overlapping issues of environmental justice, reconciliation, and restoration, 'Social Forest' highlights the continued impact of '7,000 Oaks' and brings new meaning to Beuys' legacy four decades later, in a vastly different landscape that equally demands repair.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9781636811505.
