Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of his acclaimed 60-year career, Gerhard Richter (b. 1932) has employed both representation and abstraction as a means of reckoning with the legacy, collective memory, and national sensibility of post–WWII Germany, in both broad and very personal terms. This handsomely designed book spans the artist’s rich and varied oeuvre from the early 1960s to the present, including photo paintings, portraits, large-scale abstract series, and works on glass. Essays by leading experts on the artist illuminate Richter’s preoccupation with painting in relation to other modes of representation, and emphasize the ongoing importance of the medium’s formal and conceptual possibilities in contemporary art.

Book Synopsis The Artwork of Gerhard Richter by : Darryn Ansted
Download or read book The Artwork of Gerhard Richter written by Darryn Ansted and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By uniquely treating Gerhard Richter?s entire oeuvre as a single subject, Darryn Ansted combines research into Richter?s first art career as a socialist realist with study of his subsequent decisions as a significant contemporary artist. Analysis of Richter?s East German murals, early work, lesser known paintings, and destroyed and unfinished pieces buttress this major re-evaluation of Richter?s other well known but little understood paintings. By placing the reader in the artist?s studio and examining not only the paintings but the fraught and surprising decisions behind their production, Richter?s methodology is deftly revealed here as one of profound yet troubled reflection on the shifting identity, culture and ideology of his period. This rethinking of Richter?s oeuvre is informed by salient analyses of influential theorists, ranging from Theodor Adorno to Slavoj ?i?ek, as throughout, meticulous visual analysis of Richter?s changing aesthetic strategies shows how he persistently attempts to retrace the border between an objective reality structured by ideology and his subjective experience as a contemporary painter in the studio. Its innovative combination of historical accuracy, philosophical depth and astute visual analysis will make this an indispensible guide for both new audiences and established scholars of Richter?s painting.
Book Synopsis Gerhard Richter by : Benjamin H. D. Buchloh
Download or read book Gerhard Richter written by Benjamin H. D. Buchloh and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2022-09-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first full-scale monographic study in English of one of the most important artists of the second half of the twentieth century. In this first full-scale monograph in English on the German painter Gerhard Richter, the distinguished art historian Benjamin H. D. Buchloh maps the unfolding of Richter’s ever more complex and contradictory lifework. A painter in an age that disdains painting, a German confronting the impossibility of representing the historical trauma inflicted by his country upon the world between 1933 and 1945, a European artist in dialogue with his American counterparts, Richter (b. 1932) is shown by Buchloh to be a unique and singular artist, outside and beyond every other formation contemporaneous with his own development and evolution. What emerges from Buchloh’s detailed analysis of Richter’s key works is a far more complex set of painterly strategies than has been previously assumed, strategies that have inverted and relativized all the principles of the modernist and even the postmodernist painterly aesthetic. In a series of essays that proceeds chronologically, Buchloh begins with Elbe (1957), seeing it as a foundational moment in Richter’s confrontation with Socialist Realism, and goes on to consider such works as October 18, 1977 (1988), the series of representational photo-based paintings of Baader-Meinhof members; Richter’s glass works; and the late group of Birkenau Paintings (2014). Richly illustrated in color, dense with insights that represent half a lifetime of engagement with Richter’s work, this book will stand as the definitive, essential examination of a major contemporary artist.

Book excerpt: Mit dem Wunsch nach Ordung und Übersicht begann Gerhard Richter vor mehr als 50 Jahren die ihm wichtigen Teile seines umfangreichen Bildmaterials auf Kartons im Format 50 x 65 bis 73,5 x 51,7 cm zu montieren: eigene und gefundene Photos, Ausschnitte aus Zeitungen und Illustrierten, Skizzen, Zeichnungen, Konstruktionspläne, Raumentwürfe, Collagen, übermalte Photographien sowie Ideen und Entwurfsvarianten zu Gemälden, Skulpturen und Installationen. Schon bald vernachlässigte Richter die Chronologie. Sein Interesse gilt der ikonographischen und typologischen Ordnung. Als "work in progress" entwickelt sich der ATLAS zu einem eigenständigen Gesamtkunstwerk, in dem sich biographische und historische Fakten spiegeln, ein künstlerischer Kosmos von großer Eigenständigkeit und Quelle seines gesamten Denkens und Schaffens. 2012 entwirft Richter das Konzept für diese Edition und trifft die Entscheidung, den ATLAS nicht zu reproduzieren, sondern als Buch neu einzurichten. Alle Tafeln werden im Maßstab 1:2 gezeigt, so daß dies monumentale Archiv mit mehr als 5000 Bildern zum erstenmal in jedem Detail sichtbar wird. Zahlreiche Photos im Kleinformat, die weder in Ausstellungen noch in den bisherigen Publikationen zu erkennen sind und wichtige Bildinformationen liefern, werden erstmals sichtbar = Il y a plus de 50 ans, Gerhard Richter a commencé à monter sur des cartons de 50 x 65 à 73,5 x 51,7 cm les éléments qui lui tenaient à cœur dans son vaste matériel photographique : des photos personnelles ou trouvées, des extraits de journaux et d'illustrés, des esquisses, des dessins, des plans de construction, des projets d'aménagement, des collages, des photographies repeintes ainsi que des idées et des variantes de projets de peintures, de sculptures et d'installations. Très vite, Richter a négligé la chronologie. Il s'intéresse à l'ordre iconographique et typologique. En tant que "work in progress", l'ATLAS se développe en une œuvre d'art globale autonome, dans laquelle se reflètent des faits biographiques et historiques, un cosmos artistique d'une grande autonomie et source de toute sa pensée et de sa création. En 2012, Richter élabore le concept de cette édition et prend la décision de ne pas reproduire ATLAS, mais de le réaménager sous forme de livre. Toutes les planches sont présentées à l'échelle 1:2, de sorte que cette archive monumentale de plus de 5000 images est pour la première fois visible dans les moindres détails. De nombreuses photos en petit format, qui n'apparaissent ni dans les expositions ni dans les publications précédentes et qui fournissent des informations importantes sur les images, sont visibles pour la première fois.

Book Synopsis The Art of Gerhard Richter by : Christian Lotz
Download or read book The Art of Gerhard Richter written by Christian Lotz and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-22 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Art of Gerhard Richter: Hermeneutics, Images, Meaning presents the first philosophical investigation of, arguably, one of the most popular and important painters working today, Gerhard Richter. From monochrome painting and photo realism to conceptual art and gesture-expressive painting, Richter has transformed the spectrum of 20th-Century painting. Building upon Gadamer's notion of 'formed images', the book outlines elements of a hermeneutics and a phenomenology of images and paintings. Moreover, the hermeneutic approach to art is combined with the crucial question of how paintings and photographs are related to each other for Richter. The author suggests that paintings “open up” the fixed relation and intentionality of photographs by idealizing and essentializing the content of the photographs. By relying upon a hermeneutical and phenomenological approach, rather than working from abstract theory, The Art of Gerhard Richter provides philosophical insights developed out of Richter's works of art. Uncovering key philosophical aspects of Richter's work, the author's reflections discuss the relation between appearance and essence, the role of faith and hope, the dialectic of distance and nearness, the issues of death and terror, and the role of beauty and landscapes in Richter's paintings.
Book Synopsis Gerhard Richter by : Ortrud Westheider
Download or read book Gerhard Richter written by Ortrud Westheider and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Located somewhere between Pop Art and Realism, Gerhard Richter's abstract works are the subject of this unique book that brings together 80 works from collections worldwide. Trained in the 1950s as a realistic painter, by the mid-1970s Gerhard Richter began to evolve into a more abstract artist. His large, colorful paintings from that time exposed the process of painting as much as its creative aims. Focusing solely on Richter's abstract work, this book features 80 works on canvas that represent the full range of the artist's experiments away from representational painting. It includes his early works, which called painting itself into question and incorporated personal documents and newspaper images. Also examined here are Richter's series of gray paintings from the 1970s--a reaffirmation of artistic purity; his "Inpainting" series, which made the application of paint and brushstrokes themselves the subject; his color chart paintings, which both neutralize and glorify painting's most emotionally charged element: color. Also included are his later works in which he applied paint with a brush, scraper, and palette knife. Taken as a whole, these brilliant works reveal an artist consistently in dialogue with his work, and with the overarching artistic trends of the time.

Book Synopsis Gerhard Richter by : Ortrud Westheider
Download or read book Gerhard Richter written by Ortrud Westheider and published by Hirmer Verlag GmbH. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents and describes 50 of the artist's works with essays by leading Richter experts. It also includes personal testimonials in previously unpublished letters as well as a conversation between Gerhard Richter and Richter expert Uwe Schneede. This book provides new insight into the complexity of Richter's imagery in which banality and evil confront one another: the dreams and aspirations of the times, fast cars and new travel possibilities; personal memories; the oppressive past; contemporary politics; and both trivial and meaningful everyday objects. The cycle 18 Oktober 1977 (1988), which deals with the death of members of the Red Army Faction ('Baader-Meinhof gang') plays an important role in our understanding of the evocative power of these pictures from the 1960s. Richter's intense preoccupation with this event concludes this group of paintings from photographs. This cycle, which was loaned to the Bucerius Kunst forum in Hamburg by the New York Museum of Modern Art, has led to a new interpretation and positioning of Richter's work.
