Upon his first visit to the region in the late 80s, Richter was seduced by the sublime views of dazzling blue lakes and majestic mountain peaks. Throughout the subsequent decades, the artist has continuously returned to the destination, translating the region into his own distinct vision.\u003cbr\u003eFeaturing 80 color illustrations, this catalog compiles the abstract paintings, overpainted photographs, drawings and objects Richter has created while visiting Engadin. The volume includes ever-before-seen archival images, as well as an illuminating essay by the exhibition curator, Dieter Schwarz, who further fleshes out the artists' philosophical and aesthetic attachments to the Alpine landscapes. This robust collection of materials are bound within a svelte, affordable paperback.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hauser \u0026amp; Wirth Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/24\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783906915906\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 72\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.30h x 8.20w x 0.30d","brand":"Gerhard Richter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43705190285493,"sku":"9783906915906","price":21.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_57fcd8d3-9f72-4f20-8f07-f97cab09ee90.jpg?v=1709656214","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/gerhard-richter-engadin-9783906915906","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
