With a career spanning almost sixty years, Gerhard Richter is among the most prominent painters of the twentieth and twentyfirst century, wellknown for his monumental abstract and photorealistic works. But beyond the many instantly recognizable paintings, relatively little is still known about how Richter works, his artistic processes and philosophy.For this book, Belgian photographer Benjamin Katza fiftyyear veteran of the art world himselfhad the opportunity to capture on film the notoriously camerashy artist at work. Armed with a pair of compact Leicas, he photographed and handdeveloped eighty extraordinary blackandwhite portraits of Richter painting, sketching, and mulling over his work. A keen observer, Katz shoots his subjects candidly and without the use of flash. Because of this, his photographs reflect genuine moments in the lives of their subjects, often with an almost palpable sense of humor, melancholy, or love.In addition to Richter, Katz has photographed Joseph Beuys, Sigmar Polke, Rosemarie Trockel, Martin Kippenberger, and Georg Baselitz, among many other legends of the contemporary art world, exhibiting his photographs in some of the worlds biggest institutions. Katzs striking photographs of Richter will be equally wellreceived for the insight they offer into his celebrated career.
