This second issue of the Fondation Louis Vuitton is dedicated to Gerhard Richter. It presents the artist's thirty-two works in the Fondation Louis Vuitton collection, accompanied by a previously unpublished interview with the artist and richly illustrated critical texts. Dieter Schwarz's interview with Gerhard Richter puts the career of this major contemporary artist into perspective. The painter freely discusses his relationships with artists of his generation, such as Blinky Palermo, Robert Ryman, Sol LeWitt, and Joseph Beuys, his pictorial oeuvre—from Tableaux gris to 4900 Couleurs and Strips—as well as his work on books such as Atlas, Wald, and Birkenau. The book also includes a preface by Suzanne Pagé and texts by art critic Philippe Dagen, Sébastien Gokalp, and Olivier Michelon, notably on 4900 Farben. Richly illustrated with more than sixty representations of the painter's works, this volume offers a retrospective look at more than fifty years of painting. It is published on the occasion of the exhibition of the Louis Vuitton collection at the Fondation from February 20 to August 29, 2019.
