✦内容简介——

本书深入探究了安瑟姆·基弗的职业生涯，展示了他对女性的描绘如何强化和挑战艺术家传统的身份、记忆以及历史与神话之间的相互作用主题。

尽管基弗很少与女性主题或形象联系在一起，但女性一直是他作品中的一个重要方面。本书以令人惊叹的、色彩饱和的整页复制品为特色，探讨了艺术家如何利用女性形象来探究复杂的身份和记忆观念，以及女性气质、神话和历史叙事的主题。

主要作品包括《莉莉丝》，它有力地代表了黑暗中的女性力量；《玛格丽特》，反映了失去和回忆；《布伦希尔德》画作探讨了英雄主义和牺牲的主题；《献给斯塔尔夫人》，向这位有影响力的法国知识分子的遗产致敬。基弗用他的雕塑《古代女性》将存在和语言带回了那些陷入遗忘的女性，并重振了她们的思想和观念、她们的视野、创造力和激进主义。

这本书记录了基弗运用各种媒介的非凡才能——从绘画、水彩画、木刻画、雕塑、装置到摄影。这本书是与安瑟姆·基弗工作室密切合作完成的，它为读者提供了一个独特的视角来了解基弗的整个职业生涯以及他的巨大成就。

This in-depth exploration of Anselm Kiefer's career illustrates how his depictions of women reinforce and challenge the artist's traditional themes of identity, memory, and the interplay between history and mythology.

While Kiefer is rarely associated with feminine themes or imagery, women have been a crucial aspect throughout his work. Featuring stunning, color-saturated, full-page reproductions, this book examines how the artist employs female figures to investigate complex ideas of identity and memory, as well as themes of femininity, myth, and historical narrative.

Key pieces include Lilith, which powerfully represents feminine strength amidst darkness; Margarethe, reflecting on loss and remembrance; the Brunhilde paintings, which explore themes of heroism and sacrifice; and For Madame de Staël, honoring the legacy of the influential French intellectual. With his sculptures Women of Antiquity, Kiefer gives back presence and language to women who have fallen into oblivion and revives their thought and ideas, their vision, creative power and radicalism.

The book, captures Kiefer’s remarkable facility with a vast array of media— from painting, watercolor, woodcut, sculpture, installation, and photography. This book, which has been worked on in close collaboration with the Anselm Kiefer studio, offers readers a unique perspective on Kiefer’s entire career and the sheer magnitude of his achievement.
