Summary

Published on the occasion of an exhibition devoted to Gerhard Richter's drawings at the Hayward Gallery, London to open in September 2021

Description

Following in the steps of Gerhard Richter's catalogue raisonne of drawings, published 20 years ago, HENI Publishing's new monograph devoted to Gerhard Richter's recent drawings will illustrate 80 works produced between 1999 and 2021. Drawings 1999-2021 highlights a recent period of extraordinary creativity and inventiveness that includes expansive series of graphite drawings on paper, vivid watercolours and overpainted photographs of forests. Like the accompanying exhibition at the Hayward Gallery, London, this publication offers a rare chance to study the most intimate aspect of Gerhard Richter's work.

About the Author

Gerhard Richter (b. 1932) was born in Dresden, Germany. He studied at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts and then the Du sseldorf Art Academy. His work has been the subject of exhibitions internationally, including touring retrospectives at the Kunsthalle Du sseldorf; Tate, London; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago and the Museum of Modern Art, New York, among many others. Richter has experimented with sculpture, photography, drawing and, notably, painting. Aided by the diversity of his media, the artist has continuously examined the nature of imagery, highlighting in particular the contingency of representation.
