A pioneer and leading figure in the German neo-expressionism art movement from the 1960s, Kiefer, 71, was introduced to China in the late 1980s.
Though Kiefer has influenced many Chinese artists, his works have never been seen in China, says Wang Huangsheng, director of CAFA's art museum and co-curator of the show.
The exhibition will display 87 works covering Kiefer's paintings, sculptures, installations and videos.
Some of the works are huge, according to Wang, with some paintings up to 5 meters tall.
