*This is a virtual event.*

Investigate this monumental work that took the artist 14 years to complete. In Aschenblume, 1983-97, Kiefer explores the destruction of war, rebirth, and cultural responsibility. The painting contrasts the folly of man’s work with the resurgence of the natural world. Led by a Modern Docent.
