Anselm Kiefer: Mein Rhein

Kiefer returns to his childhood inspiration, the Rhine, in a poignant retrospective of his work

The works in Anselm Kiefer’s (born 1945) exhibition at Thaddaeus Ropac Salzburg are inspired by and pay homage to the Rhine River and its surrounding woodlands, where the artist grew up. Touchingly, it includes Kiefer’s childhood drawings of this landscape, demonstrating its profound influence on his psyche.
