6-color hybrid print on 260g Rives handmade paper

70 x 70 cm sheet

63.5 cm x 64 cm image

Edition of 500. Unsigned, published by DACO Verlag

Pale horizontal bands sweep across flashes of red, blue and yellow in this layered abstract composition. Thin vertical lines interrupt the broader passages, creating a shifting balance between an underlying grid and a restless surface. Abstraktes Bild rewards close looking as small fragments of colour emerge from beneath the light, scraped-looking layers.

All works are supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity issued by Dovehouse Contemporary.

The Artist

Gerhard Richter

German artist Richter Gerhard is renowned for both abstract and realistic paintings, glasswork and photography. Alongside contemporaries such as Sigmar Polke and Georg Baselitz, he pioneered the movement known today as New European Painting. New European Painting was an artistic movement that expressed the sentiments in Europe after World War II, such as survival, memories, emotions and post-war life. Gerhard did not limit himself to a single style and cites Picasso and Jean Arp as influences in this regard.
