Gerhard Richter

11.8.2023

2023

This August 2023 work employs colored ink, ink, and pencil on paper, revealing Richter's embrace of drawing as a primary medium in his final creative decades. The combination of ink washes and pencil marks creates layered interactions between fluid and linear mark-making. These recent works on paper carry an immediacy and vulnerability distinct from his large-scale paintings and prints. The precise date in the title reinforces his commitment to treating art-making as an ongoing, almost meditative daily discipline.
