Abstract

'Nature' is one of the most important sources for artists in the process of producing their works in every time period. The artist is in an effort to reflect the sociocultural mobility of the society he lives in towards his work at an aesthetic level by keeping the artistic understanding and creative processes in the foreground. It can be said that art has been deconstructed both formally and functionally in the time period from its beginning to the present in terms of the 'nature' component. While the motivations for the representation of nature were intensely revealed in artistic forms before 1950, a complex situation emerged such as the inclusion of the real world existence of nature in art in post-1950 artistic forms. This research is important in terms of revealing this complex structure based on the phenomenon of 'nature' in art and perceiving the process in which the art is involved. Especially in the second half of the 20th century, we can recognize Joseph Beuys among the architects of the transformation of the phenomenon of 'nature' in art. It is possible to see the effect of different art movements (Performance Art, Conceptual Art, Process Art, Installation Art, Fluxus) in the artistic forms that the artist revealed. Joseph Beuys (1921-1986), who intensively uses signs that are a part of nature such as wood, oil, honey, felt and animals in his works, has attributed conceptual meanings to the signs and semiotics that are part of nature that he uses in his works. Revealing these meanings is important in terms of perceiving the works of the artist. In this research, it is aimed to reveal the sociocultural motivations that affect the formation process of the works by examining the signs used by Beuys in art practices within the context of nature-art interaction.
