The Story of: Gerhard Richter (1932–Today)
- Realism, and with reference to Socialist Realism, but also a label Richter wasn't too satisfied about. Richter was interested in current affairs, consumer society, new media and popular culture. He incorporated these elements into his painterly practice, depicting for instance televisions, design magazines, advertisements or political figures and events. This was the genesis of Richter's professional oeuvre, and photography was the starting point, something which used to be impossible with his academic background. He combined photography with his characteristic blurred effect, and immediately started to examine the relationship between both media, photography and painting, a true pillar within his artistic practice. The German artist was interested and fascinated by the dialectic relation between the objectivity and the subjectivity when painting photographs. For Richter, the photograph was the most perfect picture. He could eliminate conscious thinking, as the picture does not change, it is absolute, autonomous, unconditional and not linked to any style. With his blurred effect, he made everything equal, equally important and simultaneously equally unimportant. He was strongly drawn to depicting certain subjects from found photographic material. Think of military subjects, family portraits, images from newspapers or magazines. These selected images all have their very own narrative and motive to be painted, most often combining death or suffering, and its exploitation of death and suffering in media. From 1963 until 1964, Richter had his first exhibitions and commercial successes, collaborating with several galleries, and also collectors were starting to get really interested in his work and career. A landmark year for Gerhard Richter was 1966, for many reasons. The first, the birth of his daughter, Betty, whom he iconically painted in 1988. He also painted his wife

- Germany and terrorist attacks in the 1970s, a topic which was Richter's most provocative and politically charged body of work up to this day. His abstract works developed towards his characteristic technique using a large squeegee instead of a paintbrush, pushing the colour across the surface, creating new depths, textures and contrasts. The variety of his oeuvre could easily have been a pitfall for Richter's career, but in the end, it was his greatest strength. During the 1980s, and in particular by the end of the decade, Richter achieved true international recognition. In 1985, he received the Oskar Kokoschka Prize and had his first major retrospective, and by the turn of the decade, he was being represented by industry-leading galleries, such as Marion Goodman in New York, or Anthony Dauphine in London.
