Peacock, marginalia
Mikael Brkić
produced on the occasion of Beuys Open Source – our exhibition celebrating the centenary of Joseph Beuys’ birth – Mikael Brkić’s bronze statue pays homage to the Artist, man and myth, that was Beuys.
Based upon a rudimentary print made by Beuys’ teacher Ewald Mataré, this edition gives a physical form to the slang term ‘peacock’ – a term that denotes behaving in a way that draws attention. In this way, Mikael alludes to the complex nature of Beuys.
