Order out of chaos

A texture novel...a search for meaning in a dimensional surface, moving through the subtle rhythms, tints and tones of a vast open landscape....This book by Anselm Kiefer represents one of an entire library of lead books...these mammoth, coffee table size texts are purely visual and in perfect harmony and parallel with his paintings...

I love these objects individually and in context to the whole...everything Kiefer does is monumental...and the contrast of the scale to the subtlety and conservative palette create visual and conceptual beauty...harmony where harmony doesn't exist...order out of chaos...
