Man, it has been an intense couple of weeks so far at my internship, but it’s been a lot of fun.

I have new stuff to talk about, in spite of the fact of how tired I am.

Get ready for awesomeness…

Anselm Keifer awesomeness that is!.

so so good.

This is from his “… Narrow are the Vessels” instillation at my museum. This specific one is titled.” Let the Earth Be Opened and Send Forth a Savior”( referencing the resurrection of christ in Isaiah 45:8). His art conveys a lot of religious, themes. This is due to his own involvement as a post-war german (literally born a couple days after the third reich). This painting shows, hope and renewal with the flowers, in an otherwise landscape full of doom. The mere size of this piece alone is more then enough to leave you awestruck (9 by 25 feet) Highly recommend checking this out.

This will be weird but watch what happens next.
