| book description |
A layered and lyrical collaboration between two great artists—Anselm Kiefer and Alexander Kluge—that explores what it means to remain faithful amid the shifting forces of power, love, truth, and money. What holds us together in times of uncertainty? For decades, artist Anselm Kiefer and filmmaker-writer Alexander Kluge have explored this question—both as friends and collaborators. This latest volume is a bold and poetic exchange of images and texts in which they delve into the idea of reliability and its relationship to the four great forces that shape our lives: power, love, truth, and money. Moving across history, myth, and the present day, Kiefer and Kluge ask: What is time? In a world of endless change, how do we hold on to what endures? Inspired by Hölderlin’s call “to remain faithful under shifting circumstances,†they use art to keep memory alive, invite the past into the present, and welcome the future before it arrives. Layered, provocative, and profoundly human, this new collaboration is a powerful meditation on what connects us—and what makes us endure. Â
