MICK JAGGER, HE AIN'T
Word comes that a collection of 570 Joseph Beuys "multiples," made from "materials as diverse as gray felt, bottles, reels of film or fish bones," was purchased by billionaire art collecter Eli Broad. Describing Beuys, left, the monochrome painter Joseph Marioni told bloomberg.com, "He's a German Andy Warhol," except that his work "has no decorative quality whatsoever.'' Now have a look at Beuys the rock singer. He's a German Mick Jagger without the rhythm, eh?
