Prints of Gerhard Richter
Jun 13, 2008 - Sep 14, 2008
This exhibition features seven offset lithographs from the Museum`s collection produced by Gerhard Richter between 1967 and 1972. The lithographs are based upon photographs of seascapes and urban architecture. Richter draws the viewer into these prints through their apparent factuality as photographic images, yet complicates attempts to read them through elements of manipulation, such as blurring and juxtaposition. The exhibition complements the featured exhibition The Immediate Touch: German, Austrian and Swiss Drawings from St. Louis Collections, 1946鈥�2007, on view June 29鈥揝eptember 7 in the Main Exhibition Galleries. Curated by Eric Lutz, assistant curator of prints, drawings and photographs, Prints of Gerhard Richter will be on view in Gallery 321.
