Richter is smart, because he has so many painting experiences in his back.<BR/><BR/>I am doubtfull on the "Onkel Willi" (or what was his name?) - a non painting (no colours) becomes a political plate. And one of the first political statements in German art after the war and with a pretty hot topic, as an good-bad Uncle like him, every german family has. I do not like, that the image gets so overpowered by the impact behind. But of course it was worth a try, but unbearable to stand that endless variations by the Luc Tuymans today.<BR/><BR/>One of the really successful works "Betty" gets its magic for me less from the great realism, but from the turn away from the visitor, this great invention of composition and drama. So here again he is less a painter but more an image inventer.<BR/><BR/>The landscapes gave me always a feeling of dissatisfaction. They are waving between the (so-thought) most top surface and the most back surface of the canvas back and forth. The unsharpness sometimes becomes a manner. Eyes searching for fix points.<BR/><BR/>How do you Vvoi like Richters Mirrors and the Gray Paintings ?Hanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06081946944668235348noreply@blogger.com
