In the studio with artist Anselm Kiefer

[@shruggzdastr8-facedclown]

(@2:52): My favorite part of this video -- when Kiefer whistles while he works (or plays, rather)!

[@zedianzediessi]

And here in the corner, let’s just put some happy little lead!

[@LuizArduiniDesign]

This is unbelievable work! The way of layering textures and creating alternate dimensions on a flat surface is epic.

[@jackiemacleod7890]

great protective slippers!

[@mayormc]

I have always liked his work but this is one of the craziest things I've seen. Reminds me a bit of Richard Serra launching molten metal into the corners of a room. Very interesting indeed.

The power of Kieffer's work is in the history of it assembly. How he uncovers truth through that assemblage you can never ignore it once you come across it.

[@Cactuspractice12]

this guy has got being a fine artist down to a fine art

[@shruggzdastr8-facedclown]

For those who don't know/understand why he's applying molten lead to his canvases, he does this as a way to remove the paint from the pre-painted canvases. If he's satisfied with the resulting works, he makes wall-hanging pieces out of them which blur the line between painting and sculpture.

[@unbroken1010]

Yeah we get it

[@vi.yourbae]

thanks!

[@raycooper3269]

His work is mostly powerful if not pretty.

[@Kolobkova]

So much oil paint is wasted underneath

Madness

[@ronagoodwell2709]

Anselm Kiefer owns a vast property in southern France which has been, over years and decades, transformed into a studio/park, now opened to the public. He has made tons of money in his lucrative quest to reinvent geology and history.

[@Deepleee]

Great Artist. After Beuys he's the man!!!!!!!!

[@appletongallery]

Isn’t he a bit overrated? All of his work looks like a wound to me. It’s not life, it’s an injury of life.

[@rickprol-pc8ds]

No, I don't think he's overrated at all. If you have seen the work, I mean really seen the work, one can not but be overwhelmed and impressed. SEE IT IN THE FLESH, not on a screen or a book. They are master works of a high order and it's rare. I have seen work since the early 80s and he always delivers. His contemporaries in Germany also really something like Lupertz and Baselitz, Penck, Immendorf all very great artists. @@appletongallery

[@alex_jermaine]

I had a thought while watching his process... He uses extremely toxic materials destructive to both humans and the environment yet we find ourselves drawn to the end result. Even forcing some of us to tap deeper into our own nature and the nature of life itself. Am I the only one that sees his artistic work as an oxymoron?

[@ziraprod6090]

everything is destructive to both humans and animals - it depends on what you do with it.

Thats got to be a very heavy canvas and I'm thinking doesn't it burn a hole through the canvas

[@daisykarnas7928]

I think he uses board not canvas

[@hd-xc2lz]

@@daisykarnas7928 Some of the lead paintings are on canvas, but yes you'd assume any heavy pour of lead would require board. In terms of the burning risk, lead cools quite quickly relative to other metals.

[@marcdenis_mosan]

et puis il se met à siffloter un petit coup car c'est un multi millionnaires cool qui nage dans la peinture pompier à grandes brassées essayant de voir par quelles nouvelles dimensions il lui serait possible de sentir quelque chose comme par exemple s'il a oui on non dépassé la mégalomanie qu'il avait déjà atteinte il y a plus de vingt années mais plus il avance, moins il ressent quoique ce soit ; c'est ainsi qu'il est inexorablement entrainé à viser de plus en plus le gigantisme innaccessible de sa propre ruine intérieure s'élargissant toile après toile, dégoulis de croutes après dégoulis de croutes. Mais attention, ce n'est pas juste de l'abstraction ni juste de la figuration, c'est beaucoup plus que cela.

So is most of the food you crammed down your mouth but doesn't seem to stop you. So it's hip hop, and video games and I can make a very long list but it stop any of you. The fact that you take a straw and a bag to pick up a can of soda. The fact that you buy all your little Chinese food and throw out the condiments and plastic silverware you don't use. Incredibly disgusting and dangerous.
