Summary
From works like 'Wege der Weltweisheit' and 'Schwarze Flocken' to the Opus Magnum-series. National identity, spiritualism, literature and science - are all central elements in Kiefer's work. Based on Hans Grothe-collection - this first major Kiefer exhibition in Sweden. 'Essence-Eksistence' featuring the work of German artist Anselm Kiefer (b. 1945). The exhibition, curated by Walter Smerling, focuses on the development of Kiefer's oeuvre encompassing paintings, sculptures, and installations. Intimately linked to German history, his works touch upon the nation's identity from the Romantic era to WWII, when it was in post-war ruins. Kiefer's artistry alludes to philosophy, literature, religion, and scientific theories that coalesce into a complex contemporary world view. His art is not confined within a single area but has a vast range of both subject and material and a practice that encompasses destruction and re-creation. It frequently references other cultural creators, such as poets Paul Celan and Ingeborg Bachmann. Exhibition: Artipelag, Gustavsberg, Sweden (04.06.2022 - 08.01.2023)
