Anselm Kiefer at Thaddaeus Ropac Seoul

German artist Anselm Kiefer creates works that represent collective memory through materials like dirt, dried leaves, glass, concrete, wire, and other found objects. Inspired by the writings of Austrian poet Rainer Maria Rilke about autumn, his exhibition “Wer jetzt kein Haus hat (Whoever has no house now)” features new canvases of oils, acrylics, shellac, lead, and rope, which depict the browning fall foliage of trees. A mud-brick installation, reminiscent of the neighborhood ruins Keifer grew up with in postwar Germany, will also be on view.
