A new artist\'s book, created by Gerhard Richter, that explores abstraction and chance in art and writing The 100 Abstract Pictures shown here originated about five years ago, when I poured enamel paints on a fifty-by-fifty centimeter glass plate.
An artwork of its own, this intimate volume inspires both close looking and a beautiful interpretation of abstraction..
Debuting alongside Richter\'s first exhibition at David Zwirner, featuring new Abstract works created between 2016 and 2022, this book celebrates his continued dedication to experimentation and innovation. --Gerhard Richter, 2023 With a career spanning more than sixty years, the renowned painter Gerhard Richter is one of the greatest artists of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
