| Anselm Kiefer
was born in Germany in 1945, Anselm Kiefer is widely
recognized as one of the most significant artists of our time. The
first American survey of Kiefer's work in almost 20 years, this
exhibition features more than 40 paintings, sculptures, books, and
works on paper created between 1969 and the present. The selection
emphasizes the layers of meaning in the artist's work, specifically
his career-long meditation on the relationship between heaven and
earth. Using symbolically potent materials such as clay, lead, ash,
and gold leaf to masterful effect, Kiefer embraces a complex array
of subjects, including alchemy, mythology, and Jewish mysticism.
