Untitled (14 Mai 2000)
2000
Gerhard Richter's "Untitled (14 Mai 2000)" exemplifies his exploration of abstraction and representation through mixed media, combining oil paint applied to a photographic base to create a work that destabilizes the viewer's perception of both mediums. The layering of gestural brushwork over photography generates visual tension between the indexical qualities of the photograph and the expressive, non-representational marks of painting. Dating from 2000, this work reflects Richter's long standing interest in how different artistic processes and materials can interrogate the nature of visibility and artistic truth.
