Anselm Kiefer Exhibition

Friday 8th October, 2010 to Sunday 16th January, 2011

Location: BALTIC, Gateshead - Click for map

Anselm Kiefer is one of the foremost figures of post-war painting. Major paintings will be presented over two floors of BALTIC's galleries, alongside the monumental installation Palmsonntag.

Also on show at BALTIC, German artist Dirk Bell presents an exhibition of new work entitled Made in Germany. It includes sculpture, animation, large-scale installation and the ephemeral, romantic drawings for which he is best known. The exhibition explores the enduring tussle between love and freedom, along with the universal structures that shape and control societies. Bell's own car will also appear, sporadically, as it makes a physical and metaphorical journey from Germany to Glasgow and now to Gateshead and beyond.

OPENING TIMES: Open daily 10.00–18.00 except Tuesdays 10.30–18.00
