TAKE A BREAK - PANAROMA, GERHARD RICHTER



at Tate Modern

Gerhard Richter’s panorama is epic mapping out his whole artistic career. He is a great thinker as well. I strongly feel the big void from his works and his statement. His style is diversified. His subject, representation, and concept are enlightening...

-quote

...the beautiful culture of old master painting was irretrievable...Annunciation after Titan

...since abstractions help us think about ‘inexplicable reality’, ‘art is the highest form of hope.’...Yellow Green

...when making them he ‘experienced feelings to do with contemplation, remembering, silence and death...25 candle

...suggested that his landscapes were ‘untruthful’ because they glorify nature, when nature is ‘always against us’ and ‘knows no meaning, no pity, no sympthy’...Landscape and Portraits
