{"product_id":"9781944379018","title":"Gerhard Richter: Colour Charts","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1966, German artist Gerhard Richter (born 1932) embarked on a series of paintings: uniform grids of colored rectangles or squares in a chart configuration against a white background, inspired by industrially produced paint chips. With the exception of only one other painting, this marked the artist’s first use of color and a turning point in his career.\u003cbr\u003eThis comprehensive catalogue is the first publication dedicated to the original \u003ci\u003eColour Charts\u003c\/i\u003e, both those created in 1966 and those made in the ‘70s after a five-year hiatus. Featuring new essays by Dietmar Elger, head of the Gerhard Richter Archive; Hubertus Butin, curator and author of several key texts on Richter; and Jaleh Mansoor, professor at the University of British Columbia, whose research concentrates on modern abstraction and its socioeconomic implications, this is a handsome tribute to one of Richter’s most groundbreaking bodies of work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"C.C.
