In 1988,
New York Citys Dia Center for the Arts, which owns a number of
Beuys works, posthumously paired five columnar basalt stones (shipped
from a quarry 30km outside Kassel), with trees (gingko, linden, Bradford
pear, sycamore, and oak) in front of its building at 548 West 22nd Street.
Beuys vision to extend 7000 Oaks beyond Kassel was further expanded
in 1996, when Dia installed 32 more pairs along the entire length of
22nd Street.6 |
