About this title

Synopsis

[Cited in Martin Parr and Gerry Badger, The Photobook: A History, Volume II. (London and New York: Phaidon, 2006).] From the publisher: "In this groundbreaking assemblage of both found and created photographs, Gerhard Richter attempts to find order among our culture's overflow of random images. Atlas is among the most ambitious and engaging documents of our time."
