Details
In the documentary Anselm, director Wim Wenders creates a portrait of Anselm Kiefer, one of the most innovative and important painters and sculptors of our time. The film presents a cinematic experience of the artist’s work, which explores human existence and the cyclical nature of history, inspired by literature, poetry, philosophy, science, mythology, and religion. For over two years, Wenders traced Kiefer’s path from his native Germany to his current home in France, connecting the stages of his life to the essential places of his career that spans more than five decades.
Anselm Kiefer’s work is on view in Memory and Matter: Personal and Collective Histories on Floor 4 and part of Reimagined: The Fisher Collection at 10.
