Hans-Jürgen Schult (born 24 June 1939), known professionally as HA Schult, is a German installation, happening and conceptual artist known primarily for his object and performance art and more specifically his work with garbage. He is one of the first artists to deal with the world's ecological imbalance in his work[1][2] and has therefore been called an "eco-art pioneer".[3] His best known works include the touring work, Trash People,[4] which exhibited on all continents,[5] and the Save The Beach hotel, a building made of garbage.[6]
