Armin Zweite Reihenfolge der Bücher (Chronologisch)

One of the world's most revered visual artists, Gerhard Richter embraces diverse concepts in his work, continually defying categorization. This expansive overview by Armin Zweite explores every phase of Richter's celebrated career, from his early artistic education in East Germany to his prolific output in West Germany. The book covers his black and white photo paintings, innovative color charts, lush gray paintings, and installations featuring glass and mirrors, alongside landscapes, portraits, still lifes, and monumental abstract works that have set auction records. It also highlights larger thematic pieces, such as Atlas, his ongoing collection of photographs and newspaper clippings, and October 18, 1977, which memorializes members of a German left-wing terrorist group. The beautifully illustrated sections showcase over 250 reproductions of his most famous works, including Ten Large Color-Charts (1966), Annunciation after Titian (1973), Faust (1980), Skull with Candle (1983), Funeral (1988), Strip (2012), and Double Gray (2014). Zweite's insightful commentary provides an expert appraisal of the breadth of Richter's oeuvre, making this six-decade monograph a visually stunning and articulate appreciation of the artist and his life.

Gerhard Richters Farbtafeln entstehen seit 1966 und gelten als zentrale Arbeiten im Werk des Malers. Das Bild 4096 Farben von 1974 und die neue, großformatige Arbeit 4900 Farben von 2007 bilden innerhalb dieser Werkgruppe eine wichtige Klammer. Die Essays aus dem auf Englisch erschienenen Katalog 4900 Colours zur Präsentation des Werks 4900 Farben in der Londoner Serpentine Gallery im Jahr 2008 sind Gerhard Richter ein besonderes Anliegen, sodass er diese Beiträge von Benjamin H. D. Buchloh, Peter Gidal und Birgit Pelzer der Öffentlichkeit auch auf Deutsch zur Verfügung gestellt sehen möchte. Der vorliegende deutschsprachige Textband enthält neben den Essays des englischen Kataloges einen aufschlussreichen Beitrag zu den Kombinationsmöglichkeiten der Farbquadrate von Marcus du Sautoy, Mathematikprofessor an der University of Oxford, sowie ein Statement zu dem Werk von Gerhard Richter selbst.

Sean Scully's large-scale canvases carry on the rich legacy of postwar American abstract painting in an age when much of the critical focus has turned to subject-driven art. Using a deliberately restricted vocabulary of lines or bands of color that allude to architectural elements such as portals, windows, and walls, Scully, an Irish-born, English-trained, naturalized American, has generated a significant, vibrant, and compelling body of work that is widely collected and internationally exhibited. Sean Scully: Twenty Years, 1976-1995 traces the evolution of his art through paintings and related works on paper spanning this important period of contemporary art, a time wherein Scully evolved from a painter whose work was severely hard-edge and minimal, to one whose bravura handling of paint and command of resonant color take nonrepresentational painting towards a decidedly humanistic end
