In this 25th and final episode of “Die Erde spricht / The Earth
is Speaking” we listen to Irish artists Maud Cotter and John
Carson reflect on their experiences of having attended Joseph
Beuys’ blackboard lectures in Cork and Belfast in 1974. They do
so in the context of a current exhibition at Hugh Lane Gallery in
Dublin titled “Joseph Beuys: From the Secret Block to Rosc” which
reflects on Beuys’ relationship to Ireland. John Carson joins
long-time friend and fellow artist Sean Lynch, while Maud Cotter
joins Logan Sisley, Acting Head of Collections at Hugh Lane
Gallery, in conversation. Together they consider the effects that
the mythic and monumental figure of Beuys had – and didn’t have –
on young artists studying across Ireland in 1974.

As part of the celebration of the centenary of the birth of
Joseph Beuys, Goethe-Institut Irland and Hugh Lane Gallery have
collaborated on an ongoing programme of talks, screenings and
events.

“The Irish Blackboards: Reflections on Joseph Beuys’ 1974 Visit
to Ireland“ podcast was produced and edited by Kimberly Griffith
Walsh as part of the Hugh Lane Gallery’s Education programme
