德国人总是试图忘记过去,有一个新的开始,但没有过去怎么可能到达未来。——安塞姆·基弗当代的艺术走向,你不难发现,辈出的一些青年艺术家,已抱着不关心政治、游戏人生、到处寻求刺激的态度实现个性创作,活得自我。这无可厚非。也许我们不再需要那些沉重的、有关于时代的思考了。又或许,沉重只是打着轻松嬉戏的幌子虚晃一枪,冷不丁戳到软肋,以顺应时代的新形态静悄悄地推动着精神文明发展,那自然是再好不过。相反,成长于德国战败的沉重历史背景和阴影之下的安塞姆·基弗。
Compared with the domestic artists who always seek ease and excitement, German artist Anselm Kiefer had deeper thinking and heavier rhythm in his artworks. These works mixed condolences to historical wounds with profound rethinking and asking to culture, history and society, and raised many controversial and taboo questions to seek the identity of German culture and history.
