Social Sculpture
Social sculpture is a phrase used to describe an expanded concept of art that was invented by the artist and co-founder of the German Green Party, Joseph Beuys. Beuys created the term "social sculpture" to embody his understanding of art's potential to transform society.

These ideas were founded in the social ideas of anthroposophy and the work of Rudolf Ste ...
