In Honey Bunny - A Hommage to Joseph Beuys, artists deal with the work of the artist Joseph Beuys musically, visually, installatively and on the basis of text.

The musicians Hein, Muche Okuda, Weitzel deal with the ideas, materials and artistic strategies of Beuys, without merely translating Beuys' visual language into music. Rather, the focus will be on an adequate sonic examination of Beuys' work. The reflections of Beuys' work in the form of visual media play a central role in the works of Karbaj, Negron, and Schmitz. They transfer Beuysian motifs and metaphors into the performance space entirely in the sense of an homage in their own aesthetic visual and auditory language.

The speaker Reiner uses Beuys' texts and lectures and the artist's philosophical language material to develop an authentic approach to his works and philosophy.
