00:05:06,556 --> 00:05:08,350
The Women of Antiquity
4
00:05:08,809 --> 00:05:12,521
Octavia, Poppaea, Julia Maesa
5
00:06:57,459 --> 00:07:01,087
We may be the nameless
and forgotten ones,
6
00:07:01,421 --> 00:07:04,591
but we don't forget a thing.
7
00:08:31,261 --> 00:08:32,721
Uriel...
8
00:08:39,310 --> 00:08:41,563
Gabriel and
9
00:08:42,564 --> 00:08:43,940
Raphael.
10
00:08:46,526 --> 00:08:48,987
And there is Michael.
11
00:12:17,362 --> 00:12:20,865
Ladybird fly home,
12
00:12:21,324 --> 00:12:24,827
your father is at war,
13
00:12:25,411 --> 00:12:29,582
your mother is in Pomerania,
14
00:12:29,999 --> 00:12:33,628
Pomerania has all burnt down,
15
00:12:34,379 --> 00:12:37,465
so sleep, baby, sleep.
16
00:12:43,513 --> 00:12:48,434
BAD CHILDREN'S CELL
17
00:14:38,419 --> 00:14:41,381
For P.C. and M.H.
18
00:14:41,714 --> 00:14:44,759
Paul Celan and Martin Heidegger.
19
00:14:45,426 --> 00:14:46,677
Templum,
20
00:14:47,261 --> 00:14:49,138
that means: language
21
00:14:49,472 --> 00:14:51,516
the House of Being.
22
00:15:01,484 --> 00:15:04,779
I spilled the night out of a pot,
23
00:15:05,279 --> 00:15:08,783
it wasn't night in there enough
24
00:15:09,909 --> 00:15:11,702
for Paul Celan
25
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,088
'Wolf's—bean' by Paul Celan
26
00:15:22,422 --> 00:15:24,382
You flowers of Germany,
27
00:15:24,715 --> 00:15:28,761
oh, my heart becomes
crystal incorruptible,
28
00:15:29,220 --> 00:15:31,848
in which light tests itself.
29
00:15:34,016 --> 00:15:36,978
Look the door.
There are roses in the house.
30
00:15:37,353 --> 00:15:39,439
There are seven roses in the house.
31
00:15:40,815 --> 00:15:41,899
In the Ukraine,
32
00:15:42,233 --> 00:15:44,819
where they murdered
my father and mother:
33
00:15:45,528 --> 00:15:47,238
what flowers were there?
34
00:15:48,614 --> 00:15:50,408
What flower, Mother,
35
00:15:50,867 --> 00:15:53,411
hurt you there with its name?
36
00:15:54,871 --> 00:15:59,584
You, Mother, who said 'wolf's-bean',
37
00:15:59,917 --> 00:16:01,669
not 'lupine'.
38
00:16:05,381 --> 00:16:09,343
Mother, whose hand did I clasp
39
00:16:09,719 --> 00:16:12,972
as I went with your words to Germany?
40
00:16:14,390 --> 00:16:17,185
Mother, murderers live there.
41
00:16:19,896 --> 00:16:22,398
Mother, they're silent.
42
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,695
Mother, they're writing poems.
43
00:16:29,489 --> 00:16:30,698
Mother,
44
00:16:31,532 --> 00:16:34,160
no one silences the murderers!
45
00:16:39,874 --> 00:16:44,045
How difficult
it must have been for Paul Celan,
46
00:16:44,629 --> 00:16:49,634
a jewish poet, to have to
write in the German language!
47
00:16:52,386 --> 00:16:55,890
After all, both mother and father
fell victim to the Holocaust.
48
00:17:04,273 --> 00:17:05,816
Death-Fugue
49
00:17:08,319 --> 00:17:11,656
Black milk of dawn
we drink you evenings
50
00:17:11,989 --> 00:17:15,326
we drink you at noon and on mornings
we drink you at night
51
00:17:15,660 --> 00:17:17,787
we drink and we drink
52
00:17:18,371 --> 00:17:20,456
we dig a grave in the Winds
53
00:17:20,790 --> 00:17:22,333
where one lies at ease
54
00:17:23,042 --> 00:17:24,460
A man lives in the house
55
00:17:24,794 --> 00:17:27,463
who plays with the snakes
who writes
56
00:17:28,172 --> 00:17:31,676
who writes when it darkens
to Germany
57
00:17:32,051 --> 00:17:35,304
your golden hair Margarete
58
00:17:36,264 --> 00:17:38,641
he writes it and steps
in front of his house
59
00:17:38,975 --> 00:17:40,017
and the stars glisten
60
00:17:40,351 --> 00:17:42,186
and he whistles his dogs to come
61
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:46,274
he Whistles his jews to appear
lets a grave be dug in the earth
62
00:17:47,149 --> 00:17:50,695
He shouts stab deeper
into the earth you there
63
00:17:51,028 --> 00:17:53,197
you others
play on for the dance
64
00:17:53,531 --> 00:17:55,157
he grabs the gun in his belt
65
00:17:55,491 --> 00:17:57,868
he draws it his eyes are blue
66
00:17:58,619 --> 00:18:02,540
stab deeper your spades there
you others play on for the dance
67
00:18:03,124 --> 00:18:05,710
Black milk of dawn
we drink you at night
68
00:18:06,043 --> 00:18:09,171
we drink you at noon and on mornings,
we drink you evenings
69
00:18:09,505 --> 00:18:11,424
we drink you and drink
70
00:18:11,757 --> 00:18:13,009
a man lives in the house
71
00:18:13,342 --> 00:18:15,428
your golden hair Margarete
72
00:18:15,761 --> 00:18:19,807
your ashen hair Shulamit
he plays with the snakes
73
00:18:20,516 --> 00:18:23,519
He calls out play death more sweetly
74
00:18:23,853 --> 00:18:26,856
death is a master from Germany
75
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,650
he calls
scrape those fiddles more darkly
76
00:18:29,984 --> 00:18:31,861
then as smoke you'll rise in the air
77
00:18:32,194 --> 00:18:35,114
then you'll have a grave in the clouds
there one lies at ease
78
00:18:35,448 --> 00:18:37,700
Black milk of dawn
we drink you at night
79
00:18:38,034 --> 00:18:41,662
we drink you at noon
death is a master from Germany
80
00:18:41,996 --> 00:18:45,583
we drink you evenings and mornings
we drink and we drink
81
00:18:45,916 --> 00:18:48,294
death is a master from Deutschland
82
00:18:48,628 --> 00:18:50,546
his eye is blue
83
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,673
he strikes you with lead bullets
84
00:18:53,007 --> 00:18:54,592
his aim is true
85
00:18:55,092 --> 00:18:56,427
a man lives in the house
86
00:18:56,761 --> 00:18:59,013
your golden hair Margarete
87
00:18:59,347 --> 00:19:00,681
he sets his dogs on us
88
00:19:01,015 --> 00:19:02,725
he gifts us a grave in the air
89
00:19:03,059 --> 00:19:06,437
he plays with the snakes
and he dreams
90
00:19:07,104 --> 00:19:11,817
death is a master from Germany
91
00:19:12,985 --> 00:19:16,280
your golden hair Margarete
92
00:19:17,281 --> 00:19:21,118
your ashen hair Shulamit
93
00:20:39,864 --> 00:20:42,742
This is the Martin Heidegger book.
94
00:20:43,993 --> 00:20:45,786
Here you see
95
00:20:47,371 --> 00:20:49,498
the brain of Martin Heidegger
96
00:20:52,209 --> 00:20:56,046
in my attic in Hornbach,
97
00:20:56,380 --> 00:20:59,925
and these are
all poisonous mushrooms
98
00:21:00,926 --> 00:21:03,512
which then cause a cancer
99
00:21:03,929 --> 00:21:06,891
to grow in the brain.
100
00:21:10,352 --> 00:21:13,230
Now there is already
a slight darkening,
101
00:21:15,232 --> 00:21:16,942
and here you see
102
00:21:20,404 --> 00:21:24,200
how the cancer is spreading.
103
00:21:27,369 --> 00:21:28,579
It becomes bigger,
104
00:21:28,913 --> 00:21:31,040
almost taking over half the brain.
105
00:21:36,879 --> 00:21:41,175
And now the cancer is all over.
106
00:21:49,016 --> 00:21:52,353
Heidegger,
I could have even met in person,
107
00:21:52,728 --> 00:21:55,231
when I was studying in Freiburg.
108
00:21:55,648 --> 00:21:57,483
He taught there at the same time.
109
00:22:00,653 --> 00:22:03,447
Paul Celan met with him once,
110
00:22:04,448 --> 00:22:06,075
in the mid-603,
111
00:22:06,492 --> 00:22:09,495
in his remote cabin
in the Black Forest.
112
00:22:11,747 --> 00:22:14,333
What did he expect from the visit
113
00:22:14,667 --> 00:22:16,335
with the German thinker?
114
00:22:16,877 --> 00:22:20,464
Some explanation
of his Nazi past?
115
00:22:21,131 --> 00:22:24,051
Into the guest book, Celan wrote:
116
00:22:25,511 --> 00:22:26,929
In the cabin book,
117
00:22:27,263 --> 00:22:29,932
with a View of the fountain star
118
00:22:30,558 --> 00:22:33,269
and a hope in the heart
for a word to come
119
00:22:33,602 --> 00:22:37,439
25 July 1967.
120
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,443
But such a word never came.
121
00:22:42,778 --> 00:22:45,906
Nothing but silence
from the great philosopher.
122
00:22:47,408 --> 00:22:49,869
Nothing about his errors.
123
00:22:54,039 --> 00:22:57,084
The whole of society was silent then,
124
00:22:57,793 --> 00:23:02,089
all failed to grasp the unimaginable.
125
00:23:03,674 --> 00:23:05,718
I myself lived among people
126
00:23:06,218 --> 00:23:07,428
who had all been around
127
00:23:07,803 --> 00:23:10,055
and didn't want to talk about it.
128
00:25:11,385 --> 00:25:12,678
Now we try this one.
129
00:25:13,012 --> 00:25:15,472
Let's take off the fern,
the big one at least.
130
00:25:53,427 --> 00:25:55,304
This one we bring to the front.
131
00:26:08,817 --> 00:26:11,320
Ludwig, across like that.
132
00:26:12,988 --> 00:26:14,823
Wieslaw, alcohol...
133
00:26:17,409 --> 00:26:18,577
Ok, good.
134
00:26:19,661 --> 00:26:20,662
Careful.
135
00:26:36,428 --> 00:26:37,638
At the bottom!
136
00:27:13,257 --> 00:27:15,968
SKY...PAINTING...EARTH
137
00:32:03,797 --> 00:32:04,840
Dear Josef Beuys,
138
00:32:05,173 --> 00:32:07,384
Thank you
for your quick reply to my letter.
139
00:32:07,717 --> 00:32:10,220
I'm glad you agreed
to look at my paintings.
140
00:32:10,804 --> 00:32:12,931
I'll soon be on my way
141
00:32:13,265 --> 00:32:16,393
from the Odenwald
142
00:32:17,561 --> 00:32:22,357
to you in Duesseldorf...
143
00:33:30,425 --> 00:33:33,386
Joseph Beuys,
at the Duesseldorf Academy,
144
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,139
had many
subsequently successful students.
145
00:33:37,140 --> 00:33:41,394
As early as 1972, he wanted to
save the forest with them.
146
00:33:41,811 --> 00:33:43,772
Here, with the young Anselm Kiefer,
147
00:33:44,105 --> 00:33:46,149
whom he quickly made
a master student.
148
00:34:10,048 --> 00:34:12,634
Mr. Kiefer, you live
deep in the Odenwald,
149
00:34:12,968 --> 00:34:15,011
far from the hectic pace
of everyday life.
150
00:34:15,345 --> 00:34:18,598
Is this a better way to work,
a kind of retreat?
151
00:34:18,932 --> 00:34:22,394
I live here because I need
the landscape for my work.
152
00:34:23,061 --> 00:34:24,771
I work with the landscape.
153
00:34:25,105 --> 00:34:29,442
Of course, it's also beneficial
that it's peaceful here,
154
00:34:29,776 --> 00:34:32,112
and that I have few disruptions.
155
00:34:32,988 --> 00:34:37,409
I can occupy a big house
156
00:34:37,742 --> 00:34:39,869
which would be
more difficult in the city.
157
00:35:26,541 --> 00:35:29,044
At the Biennale Anselm Kiefer
is representing
158
00:35:29,377 --> 00:35:31,755
the artistic position of the FRG.
159
00:35:32,255 --> 00:35:34,549
This choice is
a big misunderstanding.
160
00:35:34,883 --> 00:35:37,218
The museum director maybe thought
161
00:35:37,552 --> 00:35:39,846
he had found another 'Neue Wilde',
162
00:35:40,180 --> 00:35:42,974
as the German
neo-expressionists are called.
163
00:35:43,308 --> 00:35:46,895
But with his history slander,
that isn't what Anselm Kiefer is.
164
00:35:47,228 --> 00:35:49,856
At most he is a new reactionary.
165
00:35:52,567 --> 00:35:56,363
'Ways of World Wisdom'
is written on a giant woodcut.
166
00:35:58,406 --> 00:36:00,158
And what are these ways called?
167
00:36:00,492 --> 00:36:04,079
Kiefer's German nationalist answer:
'The Battle of the Teutoburg Forest'.
168
00:36:04,621 --> 00:36:07,123
Grabbe is surely not suspected
169
00:36:07,457 --> 00:36:09,709
to be a German nationalist
or a chauvinist.
170
00:36:10,043 --> 00:36:13,588
Yes, but the subject was so strongly
171
00:36:13,922 --> 00:36:16,091
utilised by the Nazis...
- Yes, totally abused.
172
00:36:16,841 --> 00:36:20,345
But that's just Why,
because I was born in 1945,
173
00:36:20,804 --> 00:36:23,014
I have the chance to take up
this subject again.
174
00:36:23,348 --> 00:36:27,435
There's no use in suppressing it,
just because the Nazis abused it.
175
00:44:04,934 --> 00:44:07,895
POPPY AND MEMORY
176
00:45:11,292 --> 00:45:14,253
This is beautiful,
Ludwig! It's getting there!
177
00:45:30,228 --> 00:45:32,480
BED MEMORY
178
00:45:50,039 --> 00:45:51,958
Herr Kiefer, a little lower?
179
00:45:55,628 --> 00:45:57,755
Lower, so it doesn't splash so much.
180
00:45:58,089 --> 00:46:00,591
But I want it to splash, at first.
181
00:46:29,412 --> 00:46:32,790
America has a new superstar:
Anselm Kiefer.
182
00:46:33,124 --> 00:46:35,543
The start of his retrospective
in Chicago
183
00:46:35,876 --> 00:46:38,462
was celebrated
as the art event of the year.
184
00:46:38,921 --> 00:46:41,007
An international Kiefer symposium
185
00:46:41,340 --> 00:46:43,509
simply added to the success
in Los Angeles.
186
00:46:43,926 --> 00:46:46,220
The MoMA in New York
187
00:46:46,554 --> 00:46:48,681
will now bestow the greatest honors.
188
00:46:51,142 --> 00:46:55,146
85 paintings, books and drawings
are included in the show.
189
00:47:22,506 --> 00:47:25,217
'Palette with Wings', 1985,
190
00:47:25,718 --> 00:47:27,219
a symbol of liberation
191
00:47:27,553 --> 00:47:30,639
alluding to the greek figure of Icarus,
and Wieland the Smith,
192
00:47:30,973 --> 00:47:33,642
the dangerous mage
of Norwegian legend.
193
00:47:37,188 --> 00:47:40,316
A hall of honour modelled on
prominent Nazi architecture
194
00:47:40,649 --> 00:47:43,277
such as the Reich Chancellery
by Albert Speer.
195
00:47:44,862 --> 00:47:48,407
While Kiefer pushes a painful
boundary for his fellow Germans,
196
00:47:48,741 --> 00:47:51,911
foreigners welcome him
as a bold taboo breaker.
197
00:48:07,802 --> 00:48:09,512
It is perhaps easier to completely
198
00:48:09,845 --> 00:48:12,681
surrender to the spell of his art,
199
00:48:13,015 --> 00:48:15,309
than to observe it with detachment.
200
00:48:18,270 --> 00:48:22,316
With Kiefer, in a most shocking way,
landscape painting is possible again.
201
00:48:22,858 --> 00:48:27,780
"You can't just paint a landscape when
tanks have driven through it", he says.
202
00:50:42,873 --> 00:50:43,874
Now!
203
00:51:01,809 --> 00:51:04,478
I remember, almost 20 years ago,
204
00:51:04,812 --> 00:51:05,771
I was disturbed
205
00:51:06,105 --> 00:51:09,066
by a performance
which you called 'Occupations'.
206
00:51:09,608 --> 00:51:12,152
You performed the Nazi salute
on European sites.
207
00:51:12,486 --> 00:51:14,863
What was that about?
Was it just a provocation?
208
00:51:16,365 --> 00:51:18,075
BETWEEN SUMMER
AND AUTUMN 1969,
209
00:51:18,409 --> 00:51:20,995
I OCCUPIED SWITZERLAND,
FRANCE AND ITALY.
210
00:51:21,328 --> 00:51:22,496
A FEW PHOTOS:
211
00:51:27,710 --> 00:51:30,963
It wasn't a provocation,
at least it wasn't meant to be.
212
00:51:31,839 --> 00:51:34,091
Not a provocation
just for the sake of it.
213
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:38,387
I did What I thought
was absolutely necessary at the time.
214
00:51:38,846 --> 00:51:41,557
In hindsight, I think
this act was very important.
215
00:51:41,890 --> 00:51:44,768
It was during a time, 1968/69,
216
00:51:45,394 --> 00:51:49,315
when the whole subject of
World War II,
217
00:51:49,648 --> 00:51:52,985
fascism, the Third-Reich
was not addressed at all.
218
00:51:53,319 --> 00:51:57,781
In school, we had it for three weeks
and that was it.
219
00:51:58,115 --> 00:52:02,578
At this time,
it was very important
220
00:52:02,995 --> 00:52:06,540
to bring this all back into memory
and work on it.
221
00:52:09,752 --> 00:52:13,964
I held a mirror up to everyone's face.
222
00:55:16,730 --> 00:55:21,527
"The Argonauts were
the most famous Greek heroes.
223
00:55:22,736 --> 00:55:24,530
Jason called them together
224
00:55:24,863 --> 00:55:27,741
to accompany him
on his great journey.
225
00:55:28,283 --> 00:55:30,744
To do so,
he had the fastest boat built
226
00:55:31,078 --> 00:55:33,330
to ever sail the seas:
227
00:55:34,748 --> 00:55:37,709
The Argos, equipped with 50 oars.
228
00:55:38,877 --> 00:55:40,796
With this ship
and his friends' help
229
00:55:41,129 --> 00:55:45,092
he wanted to bring the 'Golden Fleece'
back home from the end of the world.
230
00:55:50,055 --> 00:55:54,393
Like a god,
Jason strode across the field of Ares,
231
00:55:54,893 --> 00:55:57,187
took the dragon's teeth
from his helmet
232
00:55:57,521 --> 00:55:59,231
and sowed them in the furrows.
233
00:56:00,357 --> 00:56:03,485
And the Argonauts watched
from the end of the field
234
00:56:03,819 --> 00:56:05,320
as behind Jason
235
00:56:05,654 --> 00:56:08,365
a Whole army of warriors
arose from the ground."
236
00:57:00,417 --> 00:57:02,377
Art and mythology
237
00:57:02,711 --> 00:57:05,464
are different forms of recognition.
238
00:57:06,590 --> 00:57:09,968
Myth provides answers
to the questions
239
00:57:10,302 --> 00:57:12,471
of where we come from,
where we are going,
240
00:57:13,805 --> 00:57:15,265
what we are.
241
00:57:15,724 --> 00:57:19,561
You are dust,
and to dust you shall return.
242
00:57:20,646 --> 00:57:23,607
Over your cities grass will grow.
243
00:57:27,527 --> 00:57:30,530
The greatest myth
is the human race itself.
244
00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:41,249
Lilith...
245
00:57:43,335 --> 00:57:45,545
has always preoccupied me.
246
00:57:46,338 --> 00:57:50,926
In Jewish mythology,
she was Adam's first wife,
247
00:57:52,010 --> 00:57:55,597
like Adam,
created from the dust of the earth.
248
00:57:57,224 --> 00:57:59,893
She felt equal to him and did not see
249
00:58:00,227 --> 00:58:02,854
why she should be inferior to him,
250
00:58:04,439 --> 00:58:06,316
or lie beneath him.
251
00:58:07,234 --> 00:58:08,610
The first marriage dispute
252
00:58:08,986 --> 00:58:10,487
was already a myth.
253
00:58:11,863 --> 00:58:14,282
Lilith has been demonized ever since.
254
00:58:14,658 --> 00:58:17,077
She's said to have fled
from the Garden of Eden,
255
00:58:17,619 --> 00:58:19,538
a restless demon of vengeance,
256
00:58:19,788 --> 00:58:22,332
threatening women in childbirth.
257
00:58:22,582 --> 00:58:24,459
She's said to rob men of their semen,
258
00:58:24,751 --> 00:58:27,170
in order to conceive
her demonic children.
259
00:58:27,629 --> 00:58:29,715
Nothing but horror stories from men,
260
00:58:30,048 --> 00:58:32,092
trying to discredit her...
261
00:58:33,969 --> 00:58:38,598
To some like a winged demon
of war and destruction,
262
00:58:38,932 --> 00:58:41,518
to others,
the patron goddess of a world
263
00:58:41,852 --> 00:58:44,855
from which the sacred has retreated.
264
00:59:07,586 --> 00:59:09,337
Petrified fighter planes
265
00:59:09,671 --> 00:59:12,090
exhibited at Berlin's
Neue Nationalgalerie
266
00:59:12,424 --> 00:59:14,509
are among Kiefer's
most striking works.
267
00:59:14,843 --> 00:59:19,765
Frighteningly relevant at the time
of the second Gulf War in 1990/91.
268
00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:26,938
The history or the wars
that are happening nowadays,
269
00:59:27,272 --> 00:59:31,735
are impossible
to understand by rational means.
270
00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:35,739
Such absurd
and impossible things happen there,
271
00:59:36,198 --> 00:59:38,784
no one can grasp them
with pure logic or reason.
272
00:59:39,451 --> 00:59:41,078
The Nationalgalerie in Berlin,
273
00:59:41,411 --> 00:59:45,832
has opened one of this season's
most stunning exhibitions with Kiefer.
274
00:59:46,166 --> 00:59:49,503
On his latest trip to America,
Kiefer was distinguished as
275
00:59:49,836 --> 00:59:51,671
'most important
contemporary artist'.
276
00:59:53,340 --> 00:59:55,133
The world Kiefer shows
isn't perfect
277
00:59:55,467 --> 00:59:58,303
with its morbid landscapes
and environments.
278
00:59:58,637 --> 01:00:00,680
A master of subtle irritation.
279
01:00:01,807 --> 01:00:03,850
He produces large format myths.
280
01:00:06,228 --> 01:00:08,939
You were accused of
your way of dealing with history,
281
01:00:09,272 --> 01:00:11,608
now you are accused of
escaping into myth.
282
01:00:11,942 --> 01:00:14,569
How do you feel
about this contradiction?
283
01:00:14,945 --> 01:00:17,697
There's no such thing as
'escaping into the myth'.
284
01:00:18,031 --> 01:00:19,574
Because the myth is present.
285
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:23,328
Myths represent another way
of understanding history,
286
01:00:23,662 --> 01:00:26,039
beyond the simply rational.
287
01:01:50,832 --> 01:01:54,127
FOR PAUL CELAN:
SECRETS OF THE FERN
288
01:02:09,017 --> 01:02:12,479
Everyone who falls has Wings.
289
01:02:34,584 --> 01:02:37,921
The Morgenthau Plan
290
01:07:58,658 --> 01:08:01,452
Anselm, time's up!
291
01:08:12,005 --> 01:08:13,798
Thank you, Auntie Jung.
292
01:09:28,956 --> 01:09:32,126
With pencil and sketchbook,
but most of all with good ideas,
293
01:09:32,460 --> 01:09:36,422
Anselm Kiefer from Rastatt
has received an important award:
294
01:09:37,465 --> 01:09:38,925
the Jean Walter Prize.
295
01:09:39,258 --> 01:09:42,595
It is the first time for
a German graduate to receive it.
296
01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:47,809
Anselm Kiefer wanted to follow
the footsteps of Vincent van Gogh
297
01:09:48,142 --> 01:09:50,061
Starting in the Dutch city of Arnheim.
298
01:09:50,395 --> 01:09:52,230
Anselm Kiefer suggested
this study trip
299
01:09:52,563 --> 01:09:55,525
to CIS, the school organisation.
300
01:09:56,192 --> 01:09:59,696
Many send applications,
only a few are accepted.
301
01:10:00,029 --> 01:10:01,656
Anselm Kiefer was among them.
302
01:10:01,989 --> 01:10:03,366
He followed van Gogh's life
303
01:10:03,700 --> 01:10:05,576
to Arles in the south of France.
304
01:10:06,744 --> 01:10:10,039
Since 1962 Rastatt High School
305
01:10:10,373 --> 01:10:12,875
is part of the organisation CIS
306
01:10:13,209 --> 01:10:17,213
and could therefore present
it's first applicant, Anselm Kiefer,
307
01:10:17,588 --> 01:10:22,385
who carried out this journey
in the summer of 1963,
308
01:10:22,802 --> 01:10:26,431
and has now, for being
the best central European applicant,
309
01:10:26,764 --> 01:10:28,558
received the Jean Walter Prize.
310
01:10:29,225 --> 01:10:32,937
Anselm Kiefer returned with
over 300 drawings.
311
01:10:33,396 --> 01:10:35,898
These show his painterly talent.
312
01:14:37,848 --> 01:14:41,686
People search for lightness,
because they shy away from burdens,
313
01:14:42,019 --> 01:14:43,145
the abyss.
314
01:14:43,479 --> 01:14:46,482
Fundamentally,
they don't want to see it.
315
01:14:46,816 --> 01:14:48,734
That's why this lightness exists.
316
01:14:52,279 --> 01:14:55,116
If you take a look at the entire
history of the world,
317
01:14:55,449 --> 01:14:58,452
the geological, cosmological history,
318
01:14:58,911 --> 01:15:03,249
then what we are
is not even a drop in the rain.
319
01:15:03,582 --> 01:15:05,876
We're less than a drop,
we are an atom.
320
01:15:06,252 --> 01:15:10,423
Then you can obviously say:
'We are very light'.
321
01:15:17,513 --> 01:15:21,434
The unbearable lightness of being...
322
01:15:22,059 --> 01:15:26,731
Being is an absolute part of Nothing.
323
01:15:27,064 --> 01:15:30,735
Or you could also say
that Nothing is part of Being.
324
01:15:31,068 --> 01:15:32,611
They are tied together,
325
01:15:32,945 --> 01:15:36,449
there is always a simultaneity,
no chronology.
326
01:15:37,575 --> 01:15:41,495
That's reassuring, of course,
because if you plan something big,
327
01:15:41,996 --> 01:15:46,584
then you know that failure
is already part of it.
328
01:16:57,530 --> 01:17:00,199
A dead person am I,
329
01:17:00,783 --> 01:17:02,118
who wanders
330
01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:04,411
no longer registered
331
01:17:05,204 --> 01:17:06,455
anywhere.
332
01:17:07,706 --> 01:17:10,709
Unknown in the prefect's realm,
333
01:17:12,294 --> 01:17:17,049
superfluous in the golden cities
and the verdant country,
334
01:17:18,467 --> 01:17:20,719
dismissed long ago
335
01:17:21,679 --> 01:17:23,347
and bequeathed nothing
336
01:17:25,224 --> 01:17:26,684
but wind,
337
01:17:27,476 --> 01:17:30,312
and time and sound.
338
01:17:31,397 --> 01:17:33,774
I, who cannot live among people.
339
01:17:35,317 --> 01:17:38,946
I, with the German language.
340
01:17:39,822 --> 01:17:44,034
This cloud around me
which I keep as my house,
341
01:17:46,704 --> 01:17:49,748
drift through all languages.
342
01:17:51,458 --> 01:17:53,627
Oh, how it darkens,
343
01:17:53,961 --> 01:17:55,004
those dark ones,
344
01:17:56,172 --> 01:17:57,631
those rain sounds
345
01:17:58,716 --> 01:18:00,968
only a few fall
346
01:18:03,304 --> 01:18:04,889
In brighter zones
347
01:18:05,556 --> 01:18:09,059
it then carries the dead up.
348
01:22:51,008 --> 01:22:54,511
I don't feel like
I have arrived at all.
349
01:22:56,013 --> 01:22:58,974
Actually, I still feel
350
01:23:00,642 --> 01:23:02,186
banished.
351
01:23:04,396 --> 01:23:05,981
Banished, and...
352
01:23:07,441 --> 01:23:11,111
not really on the run,
but always on the way.
353
01:23:12,279 --> 01:23:13,322
I can't stop it.
354
01:24:12,339 --> 01:24:15,509
At the long tables of time
355
01:24:17,010 --> 01:24:19,096
the tankards of God are carousing...
356
01:24:36,697 --> 01:24:38,782
"At the long tables of time
357
01:24:39,324 --> 01:24:41,577
the tankards of God are carousing...
358
01:24:42,035 --> 01:24:44,705
They guzzle the eyes of the seeing
359
01:24:45,289 --> 01:24:47,165
and the eyes of the blind,
360
01:24:47,666 --> 01:24:50,002
the hearts of the ruling shadows,
361
01:24:50,586 --> 01:24:52,379
the hollow cheek of evening.
362
01:24:52,796 --> 01:24:55,048
They are the mightiest of boozers:
363
01:24:55,382 --> 01:24:58,427
they raise to their lips the empty
as well as the full
364
01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:00,596
and don't spill over like you
365
01:25:01,555 --> 01:25:03,015
or I.
366
01:28:43,276 --> 01:28:46,655
Childhood is an empty space
367
01:28:47,197 --> 01:28:49,783
like the beginning of the world.
