Abstract

Gerhard Richter, like many other contemporaries, has taken the photographic image as a starting point for his artistic search. The pictorial use he has made of photography or, if you will, his photographic conception of painting come into conflict with the omnipresent culture of the commercial image of our societies. While its Atlas presents us the world under the signs of  banality and transience, his abstract paintings seek access to certain performativity without issue.
