Richter, Gerard, Mark Godfrey and Nicholas Serota (eds.). Gerhard Richter: Panorama. London, Tate Publishing, 2011. 24.5 cm x 29 cm. 304 pages. Illustrations in colour and black and white throughout. Original, illustrated softcover. Excellent condition with only very minor signs of external wear. Gerhard Richter is widely seen as one of the most important painters at work in the world today. Born in Dresden, Germany, in 1932, he left for the West in 1961, settling in Dusseldorf, where he held his first exhibition in 1963. He has exhibited internationally for the last five decades, including retrospectives in New York, Paris and Dusseldorf. He lives and works in Cologne. As the artist draws near to his eightieth birthday in 2012, Tate Modern in collaboration with the Neue Nationalgalerie, Berlin, and the Centre Pompidou, Paris, is staging a major retrospective exhibition. While many previous books have focused on one aspect of Richter's work, this stunningly illustrated survey encompasses his entire oeuvre, including photo-paintings, abstracts, land and seascapes, portraits, glass and mirror works, drawings and photographs. Nicholas Serota, Director of Tate, has conducted a new interview with Richter, covering his life and achievements. An array of international critics and curators each examine a specific period of the artist's career, bringing fresh perspectives to bear and placing individual works in the context of world events. With extensive comparative works, studio photographs, a chronology and a selective bibliography, this monumental book is a fitting tribute to one of the world's greatest living artists.(Amazon).

Richter uses image and abstraction in mediums as diverse as glass installations, painting, and photography to offer meditations on the world and the objects and people who fill it. (Greg Horton Artdesk)
This exhibition catalogue- from its opening Q and A between Tate director Nicholas Serota and the laconic painter through half a dozen chronological essays- is indispensable. (Eric Bryant Art + Auction)
Published on the occasion of Richter's major exhibition at the Tate, Gerhard Richter: Panorama is the first and most complete overview of one of the greatest artistic achievements of our times. Where previous monographs have focused on a single genre within the artist's vast output, this stunningly illustrated survey encompasses his entire oeuvre, now stretching across more than a half-century of activity, including photo-paintings, abstracts, landscapes and seascapes, portraits, glass and mirror works, sculptures, drawings and photographs. It therefore stands as the definitive portrait of Richter's colossal accomplishment to date. (Dana Jennings The New York Times)
Just in time for his 80th birthday, the illustrious German artist will see a half-century of his dizzyingly electric output shown at London's Tate Modern... If ever a show was worth traveling for, it's this one, but if you can't make it, pick up the accompanying monograph. (Details)
