From the Met to the Met: Anselm Kiefer and Wagner’s Ring: Gallery Met | The Metropolitan Opera, New York, NY
In the first collaboration between the Metropolitan Opera and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Wagner-inspired works by contemporary artist Anselm Kiefer were shown in Gallery Met coinciding with the final run of Otto Schenk's acclaimed production of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen. Nine of the dozen works displayed were on loan from the Met Museum, the rest from private collectors. The Metropolitan Museum of Art also hung several other works by Kiefer during the run of the Gallery Met exhibition.
