The city of Plymouth is all set to play host to ‘ARTIST ROOMS: Gerhard Richter’ a high-profile exhibition displaying works by German artist Gerhard Richter, widely recognised as one of the world’s most significant living artists.
The works on display are taken from ARTIST ROOMS, an inspirational collection of modern and contemporary art acquired for the nation by Tate and National Galleries of Scotland through the generosity of Anthony d’Offay with additional support from funders, including the Art Fund.
The exhibition will examine the breadth and depth of the practice of Gerhard Richter featuring a carefully chosen selection of paintings and prints including the magnificent 48 Portraits as well as examples of his abstract and mirror paintings.
‘ARTIST ROOMS: Gerhard Richter’ will launch at Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery on Saturday 26th September 2015 and will run until Saturday 16th January 2016. It will be open from Tuesdays to Saturdays and is free for visitors to view.
