The catalogue Gerhard Richter: Paintings from Private Collections was published to coincide with exhibitions in Baden-Baden, Beijing, Edinburgh, Vienna and Duisburg in 2008 and 2009.

Works from the Böckmann, Frieder Burda and Ströher Collections, and also from other private collections are highlighted and allow an insight spanning 40 years of artistic creation. The paintings from the years 1963 – 2007 reflect both the history of post-war Germany and the development of Gerhard Richter’s painting.

With contributions by Götz Adriani and Dieter Schwarz.

Gerhard Richter. Übermalte Fotografien was published to coincide with the exhibition at the Museum Morsbroich in Leverkusen and at the Centre de la photographie in Geneva.

For the first time, an exhibition and catalogue give an extensive overview of Gerhard Richter’s overpainted photographs, dated from 1986 onwards. 400 largely unpublished artworks were brought together from numerous private collections, including Gerhard Richter’s own.

Edited by Markus Heinzelmann, with texts by Siri Hustvedt, Markus Heinzelmann, Uwe M. Schneede and Botho Strauss.

The catalogue was published on the occasion of an exhibition at the National Museum of Contemporary Art in Seoul, Korea in 2006, after being shown in Malaga, Lisbon and Athens beforehand.

The art critic Rae-Kyung Park and Jürgen Schilling, curator of the exhibition, introduce Gerhard Richter's œuvre. Numerous quotes of the artist illuminate the exhibited groups of work, which reach from early photo paintings and colour field paintings to abstract paintings.

Designed by the artist himself, this publication gives a rare insight into one of the most intensive work periods (1995–1996) of Richter’s life.

It commences by introducing pictures, which having been kept in the artist’s studio had never been on view. Although mostly focussing on abstract works, an intimate cycle of eight photo paintings in a smaller format is also included: an autobiographic cycle depicting his third wife Sabine Moritz, a painter herself, and their first son Moritz in a Madonna-like pose.

This is the 3rd edition of the catalogue re-issued on the occasion of the exhibition Gerhard Richter. 18. Oktober 1977 held at the Staatlichen Kunstsammlungen, Galerie Neue Meister, Albertinum, Dresden from 19.03.2005–02.01.2006.

The catalogue contains excerpt from Parkett no. 19, April 1989: Jan Thorn-Prikker: Gerhard Richter.

Accompanying the exhibition Gerhard Richter. Arbeiten auf Papier / Works on Paper at Mike Karstens Graphics in 2005 this publication documents the printmaking collaboration of Richter and the printer Mike Karstens.

The series consisting of ten works originates from the artist's keen interest in molecular and atomic structures, and especially, images taken with a scanning electron microscope.

The book Gerhard Richter. Image after Image accompanied an eponymous exhibition at Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Humlebaek that honoured Gerhard Richter's œuvre with a large scale exhibition for the first time in Denmark.

In the book the works are divided into topical chapters: portraits, landscapes, constructions and abstract painting are provided with explanatory texts.
Essays by Poul Erik Tøjner and Troels Wörsel, as well as a biography let Richter's artistic development become comprehensible. Studio photographs by Manfred Leve, from 1967 until 1999, also allow insights into Richter's daily work routine.

Text contributions by Poul Erik Tøjner, Mette Marcus and Troels Wörsel.

This catalogue raisonné records Richter’s works in the years 1993-2004.

In his work, Gerhard Richter calls into question painting's boundaries, and the labels applied to painting and theories connected with them. In his pictures based on photographs - blurred overpaintings, grey paintings, and landscape and abstract compositions - he makes clear that nothing perceived by our senses can ever be found in a picture. The outer world is not portrayable and the inner one resists any comparison. While his painted works based on photographs illustrate painting's superiority, his glass works - glass panes, paintings on glass, mirrors and sculptures - question the interaction of viewer and picture and, like the paintings, offer a window onto the world. This publication takes account of all the important stages of Richter's oeuvre.

The publication Gerhard Richter: Paintings from 2003–2005 is based on an exhibition at Marian Goodman Gallery in New York in 2005.

Numerous artworks provide an overview of this creative period, in which the use of the colour grey increasingly dominates, leading to the 2003 series Silicate, which depicts black-and-white enlargements of microscopic structures and forms one of the focal points of the exhibition. An interview of Benjamin H. D. Buchloh with Gerhard Richter particularly centres on this series. A second focus is on the dark-coloured abstract paintings from 2005.
