One of the most famous and professional Galerist in the world is my favorite DAVID ZWIRNER. ❤️👏
These videos are very important, they bring the world closer to the artist. It's a way to offer a glimpse of the exhibition.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful video! 👏👍🎬
Very informative and great to see these works and an insight into the Richter's working process. Beautiful drawings
He is almost the single abstract painter that I like!
I saw this terrific show today. Many thanks to Mr. Zwirner and Mr. Schwarz for sharing this discussion with us. A couple of takeaways for me, based on seeing these paintings and others by Gerhard Richter:
1) Mr. Zwirner and Mr. Schwarz point out that Richter found his own way to extend the language of abstraction through new ways of applying paint. But we should take care not to overemphasize Richter's break with previous practices. His work also demonstrates that he is as interested in continuity and dialog with his forbears as he is in charting new territory. In its all-over compositional treatment of the canvas, without any special center of attention, Richter's work is especially indebted to Jackson Pollock's. And like Pollock, Richter found ways to apply paint without using a brush, which introduced unpredictability and the ceding of a certain amount of control over the finished product. But to call the results "chance" doesn't seem quite right. When Richter applies the squeegee, I think we can assume he has a pretty good idea of what he's going to get; it's not as if "just anything" can happen.
2) Mr. Schwarz says there's "no personal gesture" in these paintings. There may not be much that we would call "personal gesture," but it seems to me that there is at least some. The footage of Richter using the smaller squeegee shows him swooping it around, responding to the moment; he doesn't simply apply it mechanically, like a dispassionate scanner. The paintings also have numerous marks and squiggles on them which look like they were made with a blunt object, like the handle end of a brush dragged through wet paint. Without the Abstract Expressionists I don't think these techniques would be part of Richter's repertoire.
Amazingly fascinating. Thank you so much for sharing.
This gentleman would make beautiful curtains.
This was so interestingly beautiful to watch and listen to, but most of all, to learn from a master artist 🎨 ❤️
So fascinating! Thanks for this guided tour around the rooms of this spectacular art show.
I enjoyed viewing and listening to how these masterpieces were done.
Doubt and discovery, beauty, reality, and a personal way of abstraction, I have no words, thank you very much!
❤
most great artists are never satisfied
Very interesting, very informative!!👍👍👏👏👏👏
Everyday I thank God we still have him in this world, Gerhard Richter you're the fucking man!
great, love him and his art.
Absolute Delight, inspiration, and Admired Talent!!! TU:-)
I very much appreciate this thoughtful discussion.
You’ll find the artists who want nothing to do with fame or notoriety are the ones who end up successful. The wounded healers who have gone through pain and suffering are the most beautiful.The sigma male like myself who doesn’t follow anyone else.
That’s why they easily get noticed because they aren’t being hidden within a group of other people They blaze their own trails
They stand out and command attention with the brilliance.
It’s amazing, but my favorite (since childhood) is still his “Station,” housed at the NC Museum of Art. It’s been a great inspiration to me for many years now, & really got me into abstract expressionism to begin with.
Thank you
Merveilleux !! Splendide, du genie pur ! Milles fois plus époustouflant que l'intégralité de l'oeuvre Jan Van Eyck !...
Thanks.
Very, very good, if not almost precise, analyses of Richter's oeuvre.
His abstracts are pure critique of the subject relationship to colour and beauty. Colour is brought to the brink of rejecting itself as form.
Richter has done some beautiful paintings, one of his squeegee paintings sold for 41 million USD (please cross-check amount). The thing is that pulling a squeegee across a canvas may get stupendous results, but who is doing the painting? Is it really Richter painting the canvas or really just a bit of luck in getting a fabulous result? I mean, look around, now people are pouring colors and getting excellent results as well, but are acrylic pour-paintings, squeegee paintings fine art or fine technical studies?
Before we see these paintings he gets to decide if they work. They’re not random.
Master ship...A,Romantic our times
What I love about his work...In its purest form, art should be pure. Why does everything of today and yesterday have to represent a teachable moment? Make a statement, represent equality, have a cause, female empowerment, etc. Creativity and inspiration from these forms are clouded, shackled and pathetic! What's inside an artists head at time of conception should be pure and spontaneous. Something in the moment of what they feel without any motive. If an artists mind that day thinks about painting clouds while envisioning them with demons and anchovies then that's what they should be painting. Having a motive in art is NOT art and it's not creative. This art you're seeing now is pure.
I agree 100%. That being said, there are many artists in the world who are just as genuine and original, but never get to make a living from it, which could give them all the more freedom to create, so it makes sense to me that people and perhaps artists in particular get resentful when seeing a video like this.

Es ist einer feiner Zug von Herrn Richter nach 37 Jahren zu Ihnen zu wechseln und noch einmal zu präsentieren, warum er da ist wo er ist. Tolles Video und toller neuer Repräsentant. Ich hoffe in meiner Zukunft ist auch so jemand.
Fascinante la postura de alma de un artista VERDADERO!!
Los gentes dicen que debe haber una mente sana en un cuerpo sano. Desafortunadamente, Gerhard Richter siempre vio la naturaleza como algo cruel, incluso hostil. No veo que esta actitud haya influido positivamente en sus obras.
beautiful
진정한 예술은 철학적 사유와 원리를 바탕으로 전개되는 곳으로부터 출발합니다.
I wonder if the paintings Richter regards as most successful, are the ones which he didn't necessarily finish - but which finished with him?
Actually I am a painting lover. I like Richter's painting so much. I found a brilliant artist in Belgium. His name is Marc Cuypers. He can do paintings like Richter's. It is unbelievable. But it's true.
Yes, in China there is a village that will copy any painting you put in front of them. Its unbelievable too
Stunning work!
"Last" paintings. I checked, he didn't die. He is very old, but does that mean he'll never paint again? Did he say so? Is he ill?
😍😍😍
Not exactly a Van Gough or a Monet, or even a Hockney, but sure, smearing paint looks nice to many. His earlier photo paintings, on the other hand, are inspiring, skillful, and artful.
should've stopped after the yellow bit.
Why do you say it’s his last?
It was the last " abstract" painting he did.
And actually he never returned to painting after this painting
still alive .. did he quit painting ?
His last Abstract painting.
... why have you said that this is Gerhard's 'last' painting. Is he ill?? I haven't heard any news
Die soziale Community fragt sich: Kann man (oder sollte man) Werk und Urheber voneinander trennen?
Für eine Galerie ist die Antwort einfach - indem sie verkauft.
Eine zweite Frage lautet: wann ist ein Bild fertig?
Hier lautet die Antwort so: Ein anderer Ausdruck für ''es wissen'' heißt ''im Bilde sein''. Deshalb ist es nicht ganz richtig, wenn Gerhard Richter argumentiert, dass ein Bild fertig ist, wenn er nichts mehr hinzufügen kann. Er ist einfach im Bilde ist, wenn es fertig ist.
Sorry guys, Gerhard Richter ist leider nicht das Ende der Fahnenstange der Kunst. Und wenn ihr mich persönlich fragt: es lohnt sich nicht, jemanden zu hissen, der nie Flagge gezeigt hat.
Есть такой анекдот у русских .. спрашивают , что можешь ? Отвечает , копать . Спрашивают ,а что еще можешь ? Отвечает , могу не копать ...
