Description
The fifth instalment of Richter's Atlas series catalogue raisonné, sized to resemble an actual geographical atlas
Published with Gerhard Richter Archive.
Gerhard Richter (born 1932) began his ongoing Atlas series in the mid-1960s. His encyclopaedic and partially taxonomical project consists of assemblages of family photographs, press cuttings and sketches. Over time, Richter began to incorporate his own photographs, reflecting the increasing accessibility and availability of cameras and photography for personal means. The project now boasts more than 800 panels.
Supplemented with hanging diagrams, discussions of the exhibitions and a bibliography, this fifth instalment contains an abundance of plates scanned directly from the original proofs. Richter himself is closely involved with this catalogue raisonné and has authorised new prints from some of the existing negatives, in some cases choosing a colour profile that better matched his memories of the photographs' authentic quality.

About the Author
Born in Dresden in 1931, Gerhard Richter left the former GDR in 1961 to study in Düsseldorf, later living and working in Cologne. His practice has redefined the medium of painting, combining a rigorous conceptual approach with a sumptuous yet elusive beauty. His mastery of genres spans landscapes, portraiture, still life and abstraction.
