The exhibition of Anselm Kiefer's new work at White Cube Mason's Yard (until 17 March) is entitled Aperiatur Terra - 'let the earth open' - the reference is to Isaiah 45.8: 'Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.'
