Gerhard Richter Catalogue Raisonné. Volume 2

Dietmar Elger, director of the Gerhard Richter Archive at the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, has spent years resear-ching and preparing this publication. The six-volume catalogue raisonné of all of Richter’s paintings and sculptures will be pu-blished over the next seven years. Aside from the richly colored illustrations, many of them full-page, it includes full technical details, information about the artist’s handwritten notes, and the provenance, bibliography, and exhibitions of each individual work. This information is supplemented by commentary, quotes, and comparison images.
