| Synopsis: |
The sixth Gerhard Richter title by HENI Publishing offers a comprehensive account of a largely unexplored aspect of the practice of this widely celebrated artist.The catalogue documents Richter's series of Overpainted Photographs, which he began creating inthe mid 1980s and still engages with today.These works feature informal photographs-often snapshots of the artist's personal life- subsequently obscured under layers of paint. Richter's process often transforms their visual meaning entirely and has created a fascinating and dreamlike body of work. Essays include newly commissioned texts on the subject by acclaimed American art critic Robert Storr, Hans Ulrich Obrist, curator, critic and co-director of Serpentine Galleries, Paul Moorhouse of the National Portrait Gallery, Stefan Gronert, Christine Mehring and Dorothe e Brill alongside important reprinted texts on the subject, including essays by Siri Husvedt, Uwe M. Schneede and Botho Strauss.The book is comprised of six volumes-including an index of the works-contained within an elegant slipcase. |
