Kunsthalle Würth
opening in fall 2026
Daily: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m, free admission
With more than 60 works, Anselm Kiefer is a prominent artist in the Würth Collection, a distinction further highlighted by his close personal relationship with the collector Reinhold Würth. On the occasion of the opening of the expanded Kunsthalle Würth, the Collection presents an impressive exhibition of the works of Kiefer from five decades, with additional loans from Kiefer’s studio.
Anselm Kiefer is one of the best-known and most successful German artists post-WWII. The source of his inspiration are the works of great literature, the traditional myths of Judeo-Christian, Egyptian, and Oriental cultures, and the theories around the origin of the world.
He was actively involved in the renewal of contemporary painting. His works demonstrate remarkable breadth and strength across a wide range of artistic creations and particularly center around the process of coming to terms with recent German history. Kiefer uses materials such as lead, earth, ash or dried plants, which give his works a physical presence and symbolic depth.
