Exhibition: Gerhard Richter: 100 Works for Berlin

In the exhibition 100 Works for Berlin, the long-term loans of the Gerhard Richter Art Foundation to the Neue Nationalgalerie are presented for the first time. The central work of this exhibition is the cycle "Birkenau" from 2014, consisting of four large-format, abstract paintings. The Birkenau cycle is the result of a long and intensive engagement with the Holocaust and its representability.

The basis for Gerhard Richter's works are four photographs from the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp, which the artist transferred to four canvases using charcoal and oil paint, then gradually painted over them in abstract. With each layer of paint, the painted pattern disappeared a little more until the pattern was finally no longer visible. A large, four-part mirror, placed opposite the four Birkenau paintings and thus creating another level of reflection, also forms part of the work.

In addition to the Birkenau cycle, almost 90 other works by Gerhard Richter from several creative phases since the 1980s will be shown. Works such as "Occupied House" (1989), "4900 Colours" (2007) and "Strip" (2013/2016) are also on view in the exhibition.
