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

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 it 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. See
