GAGOSIAN PRESENTS ANSELM KIEFER

Anselm Kiefer’s August exhibition at Gagosian Athens presents a profound meditation on history, mythology, and the scars of the past.

Known for his towering, textured landscapes and use of unconventional materials, Kiefer’s works in this show continue to evoke the weight of memory and the enduring impact of conflict, particularly in relation to European history.

His large-scale paintings and sculptures combine references to both ancient and contemporary symbols, often incorporating elements such as lead, ash, straw, and clay, which lend the works a tactile, almost primordial quality.
