    The Story of: Gerhard Richter (1932–Today)

    19:49The Story of: Gerhard Richter (1932–Today)
    • Emma, nude on a staircase, one of his most famous works he ever painted, and he took on geometric abstraction with his colour chart, influenced by his friend Blinky Palermo, but also influenced by pop art and minimal art. Richter had already been experimenting with abstraction and minimal painting, think of the abstracted blur or washed out zones of oil paint, but also depicting very minimal elements, such as curtains, tubes, turning sheets or daily objects. The colour charts were copies of paint sample cards, which paved the way for Richter's future abstract paintings. After Emma, nude on a staircase, Richter would paint several erotic nudes in 1967, followed by cityscapes, aerial views, mountains, starscapes, clouds, seascapes and landscapes in 1968 and 1969. With these artworks, there is this notion of both an almost nostalgic romanticism and an ongoing exploration of abstraction. He would paint many shadow pictures, corrugated iron as a geometric abstract work, grey monochromes, colour streaks and grit, arriving at pure abstraction and questioning the limits of representation. By the end of the decade, Richter had established himself as a contemporary artist, participating in group exhibitions across the globe. In 1969, he was included in the exhibition Nine Young Artists at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, his first show at a major institution. However, Richter was still unsure about his future and in search for a specific direction, so his paints and the experiments would continue.

    • With his career on the rise, Richter was exhibiting with his good friend Conrad Fischer, who became a very progressive gallerist, showcasing the top artists of minimal art, conceptual art and formalism. Think of Karl André, Sol Lewitt, Bruce Nauman, Fred Sambach, On Kawara or Richard Long. In this context, Richter felt much more at home with painting, allowing the artist to take on painting outside of its tradition, questioning it as no other artist had done before. During the first years of this decade, Richter painted many portraits, of which a specific series of 48 portraits would be showcased at the 36th Venice Biennale in 1972, followed by participating in Documenta V in Kassel.
