“Anselm Kiefer: Studios allows us a glimpse into a series of
Kiefer’s workspaces…actually, its much more than a glimpse, because
the photographs in this 296-page book are so well executed that
they really to transport you there and put you into a closer
proximity with the artist’s process…Judgement of the work of art
becomes besides the point, because the book allows you to simply be
immersed into the process of creation, into the meditative here and
now.” ~Style Zeitgeist
"To enter a painter’s studio is a rare privilege and the stuff of
dreams, as if access to this intimate place were the key to the
very act of creation; we are admitted into the space and virtually
participate in the artistic act by our very presence, rather than
simply observing from the outside. In Anselm Kiefer: Studios,
Danièle Cohn reveals how Anselm Kiefer’s studios —and his
organization and spatial distribution of them—are essential to his
artistic activity as a painter and sculptor." ~ArtDaily.org
