Les sept palais célestes de Anselm Kiefer. La mémoire du monde. Grande Grèce Artists: Cuno AmietThis book explores Anselm Kiefer, whose eightieth birthday will be celebrated in 2024, through the seven Kabbalistic concepts that haunt him and constitute a key to understanding his work. A demiurge, Anselm Kiefer fascinates with the dizzying themes he paints, builds, and dreams about, as much as with his imposing formats. Let's face it, he fascinates as much as he shocks, and it is the meaning of art to shock, to dissent from political correctness.
