The press saw Joseph Beuys‘ invitation to be the first German artist to honored in a retrospective in New York in 1979 as a spectacular event. Beuys, who had previously been a widely controversial figure and was even called a charlatan, achieved world fame overnight. The journalists reacted accordingly. Both Soho News and Spiegel magazine had Beuys on their cover in 1979.

World fame for a charlatan?” The collector Günther Ulbricht, Düsseldorf (stamp on the cover) published the Soho News as a multiple in an edition of 25 + V. [Eugen Blume]
