Palazzo Strozzi hosts a large exhibition dedicated to one of the greatest masters of art between the 20th and 21st centuries, Anselm Kiefer. Famous for his strong-impact works which through painting, sculpture and installations investigate the themes of memory, myth, war and existence, Anselm Kiefer presents at Palazzo Strozzi a journey through historical works and new productions, in an original dialogue with Renaissance architecture.
Each of Anselm Kiefer's artistic productions expresses the refusal of limits, in the monumentality and power of materiality, but above all in the infinite wealth of resources with which he probes the depths of memory and the past. He made his debut on the German art scene at the end of the 1960s with works that, among the first, marked a reflection on the history of the Second World War and on the emotional and cultural legacy of Germany. From here began an artistic journey in which myth, religion, mysticism, poetry and philosophy come together and confuse.
Curated by Arturo Galansino, the Palazzo Strozzi exhibition aims to restore the complexity of Kiefer's art, celebrating the intertwining of figure and abstraction, nature and artificiality, creation and destruction, in a project that involves spectators both in space physical and conceptual aspects of his works.
