 Renowned artist Anselm Kiefer was born in Germany at the close of World War II, and studied art informally under Joseph Beuys at the Düsseldorf Academy in the early 1970s. An exhibit of his work will open November 6 at The Gagosian Gallery, 555 West 24th Street. Sophie Fiennes’ film on Kiefer, Over Your Cities Grass Will Grow, an ”intriguing, near-wordless documentary,” is now showing in the U.K. after screening in Cannes. It is scheduled to jump the pond in 2011.
Before the film arrives in our city, and four days before his exhibit opens at Gagosian, Kiefer will be here on November 2 for a talk moderated by Sir Norman Rosenthal, former Secretary of Exhibitions at the Royal Academy of Arts in London. Tickets are available here.
