Anselm
Kiefer: The Seven Heavenly Palaces
by Markus Bruderlin
Born in the final weeks of World War II--in what Germans who wished
to erase it from collective memory called Year Zero--Anselm Kiefer has
long sought to come to grips with his country's Nazi past. This monograph
traces his development as an artist through four blocks of work which reflect
the most important currents in his complex oeuvre. Moving chronologically
from microcosm to macrocosm, from the intimate spaces of "Attic Images"
in the 70s through the vaster "Stone Halls" of the early 80s and the archaic-looking
clay architectures he created in the 90s, Kiefer's pictorial spaces climaxed
in the endless universes of "Images of the Cosmos and Constellations,"
painted at the close of the century. With the monumental "Sunflower Paintings,"
the progression was complete and he returned to earth. Also included are
photographs by Thomas Flechtner which document the greenhouses, underground
corridor systems, and installations realized by Kiefer at his studio estate
in Barjac since 1993. " I think vertically, and Fascism was one vertical
plane. Yet I see all these strata. I tell stories in my works in order
to show what lies behind the story. I make a hole and I go through it."

Anselm
Kiefer and Art After Auschwitz (Cambridge Studies in New Art History and
Criticism)
Lisa Saltzman
Anselm Kiefer and Art after Auschwitz examines the legacy of German-Jewish
culture in the aftermath of the Holocaust. Positioning Kiefer as a deeply
learned artist who encounters and represents history in painted, rather
than written form, Lisa Saltzman contends that his work is unique among
post-war German artists in his persistent exploration of the legacy of
fascism. Formally, thematically, and philosophically, Kiefer's work probes
the aesthetic and ethical dilemma of representing the unrepresentable,
the historical catastrophe into whose aftermath the arist was born. The

One of the most important modern German painters, Kiefer is best known
for his brooding forests and somber fields encrusted with debris, for his
haunted monuments reeking of the Nazi past. In contrast, this series of
bright, spontaneous watercolors reveals a wholly different side of the
