De Gruyter Günther Ueckers künstlerische Handlungen: Eine interkulturelle Untersuchung anhand der daoistischen Begriffe wuwei, ganying und ziran
The series Notizen zu Uecker (Notes on Uecker) makes the research results of the Günther Uecker Institute's fellows accessible to the public. The emphasis of the sponsored projects is on a lively examination of Günther Uecker's work. In volume 2, the art scholar Xiao Xiao devotes herself to spiritual concepts from the East Asian region. The focus of her analysis is on the intriguing proximity of philosophical notions of 'action' in the Chinese Daoist tradition and Uecker's artistic practice. Xiao Xiao shows how the notions of wuwei ['non-intervention'], ganying [correlative resonance], and ziran [from-self-so] make determinable movements of thought that are deeply inscribed in Uecker's artistic creative processes.

Hatje Cantz Beuys & Duchamp: Artists of the Future
In conversations and interviews Joseph Beuys mentioned Marcel Duchamp more than any other artist. And hardly anyone else seems to have challenged him more than this artist from the previous generation. Direct evidence of this is his oft-cited action Das Schweigen von Marcel Duchamp wird überbewertet (The Silence of Marcel Duchamp is Overrated) from 1964, through which Beuys attempted to shift focus onto the political and social dimensions of his concept of expanded art. The associations and connections between the artists go deep. Both used similar radical strategies to rejuvenate the concept of art and the role of art in everyday life; their questions had a number of aspects in common. This richly illustrated catalogue is the first to undertake a profound exploration of this multilayered relationship, while investigating both artists’ future-oriented potential.
