Anselm Kiefer: Questi scritti, quando verranno bruciati, daranno finalmente un po’ di luce

A site-specific installation of paintings of Anselm Kiefer at Palazzo Ducale in Venice, to coincide with the 59th Venice Biennale.

Palazzo Ducale, Piazza San Marco 1, Venice, Italy

To coincide with the 59th Venice Biennale, Palazzo Ducale in Venice hosts a new body of work of Anselm Kiefer, a site-specific installation of paintings.

The title of the exhibition could be loosely translated as “These writings, when burned, will finally cast a little light“, in reference to the Venetian philosopher Andrea Emo (1901-1983), whose works fascinated Kiefer, who sees a parallel between Emo’s writings and his own paintings.  In the installation in Palazzo Ducale, Anselm Kiefer reflects upon Venice’s unique position as a contact point between western and oriental culture, but also as a connection between the two poles of a vertical division of the world, north and south.
