"A landmark survey tracing Richter's restless oscillation between figuration and abstraction across five transformative decades."
Drawing on holdings from MoMA and international lenders, this retrospective assembles over 120 works spanning Gerhard Richter's early photo-paintings, squeegee abstractions, and the late Birkenau cycle. Curated chronologically with thematic interludes, the show reframes Richter as a historian of doubt, examining how his surfaces register political trauma, personal memory, and the unstable status of the image itself.
