Edinburgh: Axolotl Gallery, n.d. (c. 2013)
10.5 x 15cm, 2pp. Announcement card for “works by Beuys inspired by Scotland with watercolours by Richard Demarco’ and a utterly spurious and hilarious claim that : a new genre of contemporary art defined by art historians and the Museum Kunst Palast in as “event photography”” (such works have been commonly collected since the 60s – Charles Wilp or Ute Klophaus being two examples who sold photographs of Beuys aktions even in the 70s and 80s). On the front there is a photograph of Demarco and Beuys at a time before Beuys mostly stopped replying to Demarco’s communications after 1981 when he donated the income from the work The Poor House Doors (which sold for 300,000DM) to the Demarco Gallery.
