Gerhard Richter, Stillleben (Kerzen), 1983, Atlas Blatt 397

Gerhard Richter is widely regarded as one of the most important contemporary artists in the world. With approximately 30 pieces on permanent loan from the Böckmann Collection, our museum boasts one of the largest Richter collections of any museum.

These pieces reflect key themes Richter explored from the early 1960s onward: blurred photographic images, historical subjects, cityscapes, color fields, and the extensive group of works known as the Abstract Paintings.

In 1962, Richter started collecting images to inspire his work, which he compiled in a series of books called the Atlas. The redesigned NMN exhibition sheds light on the visual sources corresponding to works in the collection for the first time. Through multimedia stations, visitors can trace how Richter translated his collected visual sources into paintings.

To accompany the exhibition, we are offering a multimedia guide providing information and background details on the works, as well as context.
