Robert Storr considers the importance of the Cage paintings within Richter’s practice and within the wider context of abstract art. A series of extraordinary, detailed photographs document the development of each painting and show the artist at work on these monumental canvases, giving unprecedented insight into his working methods. Including illustrations of comparative works, archival photographs and studio views, The Cage Paintings is essential reading for anyone interested in the life and work of one of the world’s greatest living painters.
