Store

Oxfam Online Shop

Gerhard Richter (b1932) is a German visual artist. Richter has produced abstract as well as photorealistic paintings, photographs and glass pieces. While famed for the photorealism of his early canvases, it is less well known that he has also painted directly onto photographic prints which are mainly held in private collections and rarely exhibited in public. This book gathers these and offers a unique opportunity to see what had previously been a neglected but copious aspect of Richter's work. The book has a grey fabric cover with a photo imprint on the front. There is some fading of the lettering on the cover and spine.
