Author: Gerhard Richter, Marcus du Sautoy, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Bettina Korek
Since the early 1960s, Gerhard Richter has tirelessly explored theinfinite possibilities of painting and gained status as a celebrated artist worldwide. STRIP-TOWER (962), 2023, expands on the artist’s enduring investigations of painting, photography, digital reproduction and abstraction. Building on his series of Abstract Paintings from the 1970s onwards, and Strip Paintings made since 2011, with STRIP-TOWER (962) the artist moves his explorations into three dimensions. Created using glossy ceramic tiles that clad two perpendicular panels to create a cruciform structure of 12 faces, Marcus du Sautoy describes the work as a piece of ‘complexity and simplicity’; its vertically stripes hiding a deeper, symmetrical process. This book commemorates the first public presentation of the work which was organised by Serpentine inLondon’s Kensington Gardens from April 2024 to February 2025.
