Derived from Gerhard Richter’s eponymous oil on canvas from 2006, ‘Haggadah’ (2014) is characterised by tantalising and exciting passages of yellow, grey, red, green and blue. Published as a chromogenic print by HENI, ‘Haggadah’ is entrancing for its seemingly endless layers of mesmerising paint and changing...
Born out a practice of destruction was Gerhard Richter’s ‘Cage’ series of six paintings from 2006. Invigorated by the dynamic bodily movements of the artist, Richter’s monumental ‘Cage’ canvases are rich in texture and captivating in their depth of colour.

Once the paints achieved the desired effect, Richter placed a glass sheet over them, freezing these interactions in a moment in time...read more
Gerhard Richter’s ‘Flow (P15)’ (2016), a facsimile print after a painting from the eponymous 2013 series, displays large fields of deep green, pink and yellow, streaked with white and black strokes. A strikingly dynamic composition, this work nonetheless conveys subtle representational suggestions, its wild colour interactions recalling powerful waves or raging storms.
