Gagosian is presenting Anselm Kiefer’s exhibition “Exodus” at Marciano Art Foundation in Los Angeles, where the artist’s monumental, tactile canvases explore ideas of loss, history, and redemption. Mixing paint with elements like terra-cotta, rope, fabric, metal, electrolysis sediment, gold leaf, and found matter and objects—the abject and the exalted—Kiefer’s encompassing compositions are suggestive of allegorical narratives informed by history, mythology, literature, and the snippets of otherworldly or celestial connections. Visitors at the space can expect to find canvases and sculptural works including a suspended iteration of a naval vessel alluding to the parting of the Red Sea in the book of Exodus (titled And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as a heap) and the titular work, which incorporates straw affixed to a canvas where a daunting landscape with whirling forms envelop a bicycle.
