Gagosian at Marciano Art Foundation, Los Angeles
In conjunction with the exhibition Anselm Kiefer: Exodus, Gagosian is pleased to present a pop-up shop and reading room at Marciano Art Foundation in Los Angeles. Centered on the artist’s work, the shop features catalogues, monographs, and posters published for Kiefer’s exhibitions as well as rare books, alongside a broader selection of titles recently released by the gallery. The reading room provides an opportunity for visitors to peruse publications on Kiefer and texts that are relevant to his practice, including poetry by Paul Celan and Ingeborg Bachmann; the Prose Edda, a body of thirteenth-century Icelandic literature that remains a major source of German mythology; and The Thief’s Journal by Jean Genet. The pop-up shop and reading room are open during exhibition hours.
