About the book: The German artist Gerhard Richter paved new paths for the relationship between painting and reality. Between abstract works and photo-based paintings, Richter pushed the boundaries of the medium and reminds us, in an age of ubiquitous digital images, of the importance and urgency of painterly image processes. An introduction to one of the greatest artists of our time, spanning his entire career.
