True, this is the kind of image he has, to be shy, not a man of many words and I had the impression that, also from reading the text, it is not interested in developing theories about his work by himself, Brill said.
Gerhard Richter, Panorama is the title of the retrospective organized in collaboration with the Tate Modern in London and the Center Pompidou in Paris Around 130 paintings and five sculptures were selected in close collaboration with the artist The exhibition displays pictorial dialogue underway Richter between abstraction and figuration.
And that's something we really wanted to show our hanging here in Berlin is very strictly chronological So you see diversity in the style he continues, not one after the other, but at the same time he painted in modes that are extremely different and doesn t need a structure or a linear development.
