Gerhard richter painting

Gerhard Richter- Portrait of André Schmucki

Gerard Richter

Often referred to as a painter in a photographic age, the work of influential twentieth and twenty-first century artist Gerhard Richter is one whose work still resonates today. I'm particularly fond of his photography based paintings, especially the Firenze series, whereas he smears multi-colored paint over photographs and found images to create these dreamy abstracted landscapes. Enjoy!

Colours fuse and split, curdle, judder and smear in the elusive work of a nonagenarian artist still out to surprise

Though the artist was previously indirect in his references to the horrors of the Third Reich, he has reason to focus on them now, in a retrospective at the Met Breuer, Peter Schjeldahl writes.
