Sotheby’s is honored to present the extraordinary collection of Jörg Schellmann, which features key works by Joseph Beuys. Spanning from 1970 to 1986, many of the works in this collection arose from Beuys’ close collaboration with Jörg Schellmann. This collection stands out not only for its extraordinary artistic value but also because of the close relationship between Schellmann and Beuys, who collaborated frequently over the years. Their personal and professional connection allowed Schellmann to acquire unique insights into Beuys' creative processes and philosophy, resulting in a collection of works and multiples that are both profound and intimate. Each piece reflects Beuys’ innovative spirit and Schellmann’s keen curatorial eye, making this collection a rare opportunity for collectors to acquire works born from a deep artistic and intellectual partnership.
