The Richter Interviews collects together a series of conversations
between Hans Ulrich Obrist and Gerhard Richter over the course of
more than two decades of discussion and collaboration. Subjects
range from Richter's place within art history to artists' books,
architecture, religion, unrealised projects and his advice for
young artists. The collection also includes a previously
unpublished interview focused on Richter's much-lauded window for
Cologne Cathedral, unveiled in 2007. Obrist's vast knowledge and
interrogating mind coupled with his longstanding friendship with
Richter make him a unique interlocutor for an artist whose work
spans more than 60 years and ranges from painting to photography,
glass to printmaking, watercolours to books. Obrist deftly guides
the reader through a dazzling array of topics and offers an
invaluable historical perspective on Richter's place within the art
world of the 20th and 21st centuries. Illustrations of discussed
artworks by Richter feature throughout the texts for visual
reference - making this an indispensable guide to the thinking and
creative processes of one of the world's most admired artists.
