Es liegt ein Beiheft mit der deutschen Übersetzung des Essays von Benjamin H. D. Buchloh bei.
On view will be a major representation of works made by the artist from 2005 to the present, including an important new cycle of paintings titled Sindbad, 2008 as well as individual paintings presenting medium to large format abstractions, and a new group of large scale near-monochrome paintings whose underlying chromatic structures are layered by translucent veils of white paint. The exhibition will be the most recent presentation of the artist's work in New York since his solo exhibition at Marian Goodman NY in 2005.
During the past two decades Gerhard Richter has made several important cycles of abstract paintings. The current exhibition follows on other recent series of abstract works by Richter, including the Silicate paintings of 2003; the Cage paintings of 2006, conceived as a single coherent group and first displayed in 2007 at the 52nd Venice Biennale curated by Rob Storr; and a recent group of white abstract works exhibited at Galerie Marian Goodman, Paris in 2008.
A fully illustrated catalogue, Gerhard Richter: Abstract Paintings, 2009 will be published on the occasion of the exhibition and will include a new text by Benjamin H. D. Buchloh, Andrew W. Mellon Professor of Modern Art History at Harvard University. The catalogue will also include full-color reproductions of the exhibition. In his essay, Buchloh traces the historical and aesthetic framework of Richter's abstract paintings and considers the artist's recent white non-representational works within the larger context of a postwar trajectory of reductivist painting in the US and Europe.
