In 1972 the artist Joseph Beuys established the office Organisation für direkte Demokratie durch Volksabstimmung for Documenta 5. Visitors could find the artist there, sitting at a desk with a red rose in a measuring cylinder. Titled (Roses) is a quotation of Beuys‘ work and an attempt to examin it.
