Lot Details
RICHTER, GERHARD
1932 Dresden

Title: Vermalung (grau).
Date: 1971.
Technique: Oil on plastic paper.
Measurement: 40 x 40cm.
Notation: Signed, dated and numbered verso: Richter, 8.9.71 39/150.
Frame/Pedestal: Ed. 39/150.


Due to the way the paint was applied by finger, all sheets differ from each other, so that each copy has a unique character. The edition is actually smaller than 150 copies, as 20 were destroyed.

The edition is listed on the artist's official website (www.gerhard-richter.com).

Provenance:
- Private collection North Germany

Literature:
- Gerhard Richter - Editionen 1965-2004, Catalogue Raisonné, Ostfildern-Ruit 2004, cat. rais. no. 45


- From 1971 to 1973 a series of inpaintings was created, which are exemplary for Richter's exploration of abstraction during this period
- The work has a unique character due to the individual treatment
- In the 1970s the colour grey gains importance in Richter's oeuvre, inspired by his well-known photographic images.
