Gerhard Richter: Panorama

Gerhard Richter (born 1932) is widely regarded as one of the most important painters at work in the world today and has exhibited at many of the world's leading art institutions. He is as well known for his figurative works as he is for his abstract paintings, often combining elements of both in groundbreaking ways. On the occasion of a major, touring, retrospective exhibition, a collaboration between Tate Modern, London, Nationalgalerie, Staatliche Museen zu Berlin and Centre Pompidou, Paris, this important book encompasses Richter's entire career. With texts by leading international authorities on Richter's work, a new interview with the artist and over 300 illustrations, it will remain the most comprehensive survey of Richter's monumental achievements for many years to come.
