Synopsis

This book maps the ideas, processes, life and times of Gerhard Richter, one of the most important artists at work in the world today. Consisting of more than 5,000 photographs, drawings and sketches created by the artist since 1962, the images closely parallel, year by year, the subjects of Richter's paintings, revealing the orderly but open-ended analysis central to his art. Richter's photographs - sometimes found, sometimes his own work - have provided the basis for many of his paintings. The encyclopaedic range of Atlas can be read as a reflection of recent German history, from the 'unpaintable' photographs of the concentration camps to images from the Baader Meinhof years to a commission to inaugurate the new Reichstag.
