Gerhard Richter has long been one of the most important living contemporary artists. His diverse oeuvre, which ranges from blurred photographs to abstract paintings, always revolves around the question of what we think we see.
Berlin collector Georg Böckmann and his wife Ingrid Böckmann assembled an outstanding collection that includes works from all phases of Richter's career. Our exhibition offers insights into Richter's work and introduces visitors to the artist's methods.
To accompany the exhibition, we offer a multimedia guide providing information and background details on the works. You can access the content via our website on your own smartphone, either in the exhibition or at home.
The project was supported as part of the kultur.digital.vermittlung programme run by the Bavarian State Ministry of Science and the Arts.
