Gerhard Richter — 8.4.2023 (2)
Gerhard Richter

8.4.2023 (2)

2023

Created just days after 5.4.2023, this second collage from early April 2023 demonstrates Richter's prolific output even in his later years, often producing multiple works within the same period. The numbered dating system he employs treats each collage as part of a continuous, chronological body of work rather than isolated objects. This approach echoes his Atlas project, in which accumulation and seriality are central concerns. The collage medium offers spontaneity and layering, qualities that complement his broader investigation of perception and image-making.
