Anselm Kiefer’s work has always focused on history and mythology. In his early Heroic Symbols series—self-portraits with Hitler salute in various landscapes and settings appropriated from art history—the young Kiefer exorcizes the ghost of the past by means of his own body. Schirmer/Mosel. Edited by Heiner Bastian. 72 pages, 28 colour and duotone plates. Size: 22.8 x 30 cm, hardcover. English/German edition.
