StatistikA Ship Will Come
Impressionism
1974
24.0 x 20.0 cm
Anselm Kiefer (1945 –)
Udforsk Anselm Kiefers monumentale malerier og skulpturer, der konfronterer tysk historie og traumer. Kendt for aske, halm og kraftfuld symbolik, er hans værk en visceral oplevelse.
In summer 1974 Kiefer traveled to the northernmost region of Norway, the North Cape, on the Arctic Ocean, taking Polaroids and collecting postcards of the stunning landscape for later use in the studio. Here, an image of a cruise ship against the backdrop of a magnificent fjord and the glowing midnight sun becomes the personification of, in Kiefer"s words, the "perfect kitsch song of the student revolution" of the 1960s—"A Ship Will Come"—which was popular in the Germany of Kiefer"s youth and, for the artist, full of unrealized, even vulgar, utopian yearning.
