Includes texts by Francis Outred, Kenny Schachter, Dietmar Elger, Faith Chisolm, Jill Loyd, Robert Brown. Published in conjunction with an exhibition "Polke/Richter : Richter/Polke" held at the Christie's Mayfair, London, April 25 - July 7, 2014.
Summary:
"This exhibition celebrates two giants of painting: Gerhard Richter and Sigmar Polke. The show brings together 65 works from 30 collections to create the artists' first joint show in almost 50 years, since their now legendary 1966 exhibition at Galerie h in Hanover. This show was a declaration of their intention to resurrect painting, a medium presumed dead, by deconstructing it and opening up new possibilities."
