Anselm Kiefer (born 1945) can be described as one of the analysts and archaeologists in contemporary art. His often monumental works are always based on a process of extensive analysis of the history, religion and mythology of his subject, which lends his works its particular, substantial content. This comprehensive publication presents a large part of Kiefer’s works from the private collection Grothe, including rarely exhibited works, which impressively demonstrate the uniqueness of the artist.
