The Lonely Palette

Re-ReleaseEp. 48 - Anselm Kiefer's "Margarete" and "Sulamith" (1981)


Listen Later

A year ago today, we released our most ambitious episode yet: an exploration of postwar German artist Anselm Kiefer's layered, dense, enormous canvases that themselves respond to the enormity of Holocaust survivor Paul Celan's layered, dense poem, "Todesfugue."

In honor of this episode taking the gold in podcasting at the American Alliance of Museums' MuseWeb awards, we're re-releasing the episode, and with it the layers of metaphor and materials, texture and text, golden straw and blackened ash, that comprise the unimaginable.

This episode was produced with support from the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Learn more at www.sfmoma.com.
