Notes

Série 'Schriften des Gerhard Richter Archiv Dresden ; vol. 11'

Gerhard Richter. Bücher is the first publication that exclusively addresses Gerhard Richter’s artist’s books. Starting with a brief introduction to the history of the genre, Dieter Schwarz proceeds to analyse Richter’s diverse publications, which don’t necessarily stand out with extravagant covers, but are versatile in dealing with different subjects and their presentation. The aspect of reproduction and the processing of graphical material, which plays a crucial role in Richter’s works in general, can also be found in most of his books. Schwarz adjudges Eis and Wald a special status, as they are not derived from image details like War Cut or Patterns, but consist of independent series of pictures.

 

In the interview with Richter, Hans Ulrich Obrist, who also collaborated with him on a number of books, discusses the artist’s books chronologically and raises detailed questions about the development and context of all of Richter’s publications. The interviewer talks to Richter about his ideals and guiding principles in painting. Obrist is mainly interested in the structure and arrangement of the books, which demonstrate a carefully conceived composition.

The catalogue raisonné of Richter's editions was published at the same time as the exhibition Gerhard Richter: Editionen 1965 – 1993 at the Kunsthalle Bremen took place in 1993.

It follows several catalogues of early printworks published in the 1970s, and presents an overview of the editions up to 1993. Although Gerhard Richter gained world-wide reputation as a painter, numerous limited edition objects, graphics, photographs and artists' books accompany his œuvre.

A comprehensive text by Hubertus Butin illuminates Richter's editions from different angles, outlines similarities in form and content and considers the question of originality and authorship.
