"Exploring Anselm Kiefer's Cosmos: A Review of Wim Wenders' 3D Documentary 'Anselm'"

"Anselm" is a 3D documentary by Wim Wenders that explores the works of German painter and sculptor Anselm Kiefer. The film delves into Kiefer's uncompromising gaze at Germany's dark histories and his own place in them. Through visually immersive storytelling, Wenders captures the artist's use of burnt raw materials and evocative landscapes to convey the ravages of World War II. While the documentary doesn't try to endear us to its subject, it offers a vivid portrayal of Kiefer's art and his philosophical reflections on his nation's past.
