D 2023, Director and writer: Wim Wenders
Duration: 93 minutes
Wenders' essayistic portrait film about his long-time friend Anselm Kiefer focuses on two locations: an area in Barjac, southern France, which Kiefer has developed into a spectacular walk-in Gesamtkunstwerk since the early 1990s, and a monumental warehouse in a suburb of Paris, where Kiefer has lived and worked for several years. Breathtaking images and explanatory off-screen commentaries reveal the complex and controversial work of an artist of the century. The 2D version will be shown!
Between 2012 and 2024, the Films on Art series was held in the glass hall of Café Podest in the Waldfrieden Sculpture Park. In spring 2025, it will now make a guest appearance at the Pina Bausch Centre under construction. Curator Mark Tykwer has three special cinema evenings on the program: the interview film Pina’s Pearls by Wuppertal journalist and filmmaker Anne Linsel about the first and second generation of dancers at Tanztheater Wuppertal (Friday, 31. January), the current light and land art documentary Tracing Light by Thomas Riedelsheimer (Friday, 7. February) and finally Wim Wenders' artistic Anselm Kiefer portrait Anselm – Das Rauschen der Zeit (2D) (Friday, 14. February).
