Réédition de cette petite monographie, excellente introduction à l'oeuvre du couple de photographes allemands dont les vestiges de la culture industrielle - tours de forage, gazomètres, haut fourneaux, silos à grains - ont été les thèmes de prédilection.
Spanning from 1965 to 2021, Gerhard Richter - Photographs explores how the artist has continued to navigate the pictorial potential of a photograph over the decades of his work. While Richter's body of work includes relatively few pure photographs - as Dieter Schwarz points out, "The photographs presented [...] are the exception rather than the rule" -, his photographic strategies are just as inventive and diverse as his work in general. Simultaneously, his creations in other media often draw heavily from the influence of photography. In essence, photographs serve as the origin and core of many of Richter's works. Encompassing early self-portraits, portrait series, landscapes, experimental abstractions, and reproductions of Richter's own paintings, the catalogue includes a new text by Schwarz.
