Anselm Kiefer: Alkahest

Edited by Arne Ehmann. Poem by Christoph Ransmayr.
Published by Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac

Among the many artists who have broached the motifs and themes of alchemy, Anselm Kiefer (born 1945) is pre-eminent in his concern with the transformation of earthly elements such as oil, straw, lead, mercury, stone, metal, rust and mud. Alkahest documents the artist’s latest series of both monumental and smaller paintings, as well as sculptures, which explore the titular alchemical term. Kiefer defines the term and his uses of it thus: “’Alkahest’ signifies that there is a solution which can dilute any substance. Dilution is of course something very important for me. I often lay pictures on the floor and pour water over them, or pour on water that has paint dissolved in it. So I’m exposing them to dilution.” Alkahest features color reproductions of the series as well as a poem by Christopher Ransmayr.

Anselm Kiefer: Velimir Chlebnikov and the Sea

Edited by Harry Philbrick.
Published by The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum/Derneburg Publications

Born in Germany in 1945, Anselm Kiefer is one of Europe's most esteemed expressionistic painters, known for his exploration of the deep, mythological currents that guide Western history. This catalogue reproduces what is perhaps the most significant project that Kiefer has presented in the United States in 20 years. Called "magnificent," and "powerful" by London's Daily Telegraph, Velimir Chlebnikov is a monumental suite of 30 new paintings housed inside a steel pavilion designed by the artist. Made in tribute to the visionary Russian avant-garde philosopher Velimir Chlebnikov (1885-1922), the works are inspired by Chlebnikov's writings--in particular, his esoteric theories about the forces that cause human conflict. Featuring reproductions of the paintings, installation shots and an texts by Harry Philbrick of The Aldrich Museum, this publication is the definitive record of the Chlebnikov project, which is now housed in a private collection and unavailable to the public. Limited stock available.

Anselm Kiefer: Merkaba

Essays by Lia Rumma, Marco Belpoliti, Roberto Andreotti, Frederico De Melis and Fabrizio Tramontano.
Published by Charta

In the chaos of Milan's swiftly-converting industrial quarter, one massive space has been set aside for contemporary art. Merkaba documents Hangar Bicocca's first installation, the seven title towers, from the prototype stage to installation by cranes and pulleys to the spotlight. Each precarious-looking spire of cement and lead boxes has a name of its own as well. "Falling Stars," "Sternenlager," "Die Sefiroth," "Tzim-Tzum," "Shevirat Ha-Kelim," "Tiqqun" and "The Seven Heavenly Palaces." Their towering silhouettes, some as many as 50 feet high, are as mystical as their titles suggest, but they also seem to make reference to all that is changing and staying the same in the city where they stand, home both to early sacred and secular towers and contemporary skyscrapers. Kiefer, known best for his reckonings with German history, proves that he can work the same alchemy elsewhere.
