In Anselm Kiefer's watercolor "Les extases féminines"(The Feminine Ecstasies), a woman touching herself reclines amid radiant red flowers. They were painted on wet paper to blend the rose tones of a woman's body into the background blues, dissolving distinctions between body, petals, and lips.
Anselm Kiefer is renowned for producing substantial artwork that frequently explores profound themes, including German history and guilt. His artistic style is closely linked to the New Symbolism and Neo-Expressionism movements. Kiefer is particularly celebrated for his remarkable paintings, which have continuously increased in both size and complexity. These works often incorporate unconventional materials such as lead, shattered glass, and dried flora.
