Publisher's Synopsis
Produced to accompany a monumental 2023 exhibition across three Swiss locations, 'Engadin' delves into Gerhard Richter's profound relationship with the Engadin region in the Swiss Alps.
Coinciding with the eponymous exhibition happening concurrently at Nietzsche-Haus, Segantini Museum and Hauser & Wirth St. Moritz, Gerhard Richter: Engadin delves into the artist's deep relationship with the Engadin region in the Swiss Alps, which he first visited in the late eighties. In an insightful essay by Dieter Schwarz, curator of the exhibition, works in the exhibition are discussed to explore the Alpine landscapes' impact on the artist. With eighty color illustrations, the book features paintings, overpainted photographs, and archival images, with some materials available to see published for the first time.
