Notebooks, Volume 1, 1998-99

More about the book

Since he was awarded the Peace Prize by the German Book Trade in 2008, Anselm Kiefer's essays, speeches, and lectures have gradually received more attention, but until now his diary accounts have been almost completely unknown. The power in Kiefer's images, however, is rivaled by his writings on nature and history, literature and antiquity, and mysticism and mythology.
