Painting-its principles, boundaries, and possibilities-is the central theme of the extensive body of work by Gerhard Richter (*1932 in Dresden), an oeuvre has been characterized by stylistic contrasts since the very beginning. This elegant volume of color plates featuring profound essays by Benjamin H. D. Buchloh, Beate S�ntgen, and Gregor Stemmrich focuses on the artist's abstract paintings, which have comprised a dominant portion of his collective works since the eighties. The book does not trace the development of form and content in the paintings, but concentrates instead on the paintings that thematically comprise a homogenous body of work. It is based on the assertion that Richter's abstract paintings are the results of various painterly processes that are not guided in a particular direction by a content-related precept. The featured paintings were produced between 1986 and 2006 and place emphasis on large-format paintings characterized by a prodigious painterly density.

Seller's Description:
Very good. Die Malerei ihre Prinzipien, Grenzen und Möglichkeiten ist das zentrale Thema im umfangreichen Werk von Gerhard Richter (*1932 in Dresden), das seit seinen Anfängen durch stilistische Gegensätze gekennzeichnet ist. Der elegante, durchgehend farbig bebilderte Band mit profunden Textbeiträgen von Benjamin H. D. Buchloh, Beate Söntgen und Gregor Stemmrich lenkt den Blick auf die abstrakten Bilder des Künstlers, die seit den 1980er-Jahren eine dominierende Werkgruppe darstellen. Dabei wird keine formal-inhaltliche Entwicklung nachgezeichnet, vielmehr konzentriert sich die Werkauswahl auf Gemälde, die thematisch einen homogenen Schaffenskomplex bilden. Ausgangspunkt ist die Feststellung, dass die abstrakten Bilder Ergebnisse malerischer Prozesse sind, die nicht durch eine inhaltliche Vorgabe in eine bestimmte Richtung gelenkt werden. Die gezeigten Gemälde sind zwischen 1986 und 2006 entstanden und stellen großformatige Bilder, die von einer ungeheuren malerischen Dichte geprägt sind, in den Vordergrund. Im repräsentativen Großformat – mit zahlreichen 1: 1-Details aus den abstrakten Bildern des großen deutschen Künstlers Gerhard Richter.
