Although Anselm Kiefer's work is routinely compared with the Gesamtkunstwerk, the 'total work of art' pioneered by Richard Wagner, this book investigates the highly ambivalent relationship between these two artists. Their views on art and society, individualism and counter-Americanism are all explored.
