Gerhard Richter (*1932 in Dresden) has always dealt with the
landscape. No other motif has fascinated him as much or kept him so
occupied over the years: black-and-white landscapes based on images
from magazines and amateur photos; views of mountains and parks
painted in thick impasto; softly hued, transparent, illusionist
lake scenes. Ever since the subtle Corsica paintings of 1968/69,
landscapes have become an established, distinct group of works
within the artist's oeuvre. Richter captures reality in a painterly
way, such that landscape and abstraction manifest not as opposites
but as related concepts. Containing outstanding illustrations and
insightful texts, this volume examines Richter's landscapes from
the early sixties to the present.
