- Art critic Adrian Searle considers the mysterious paintings of German artist Gerhard Richter at London's Tate Modern, whose work deals with subjects as diverse as photorealistic family portraits to a blurred vision of September 11
I love the critic’s passion and how free he is with his emotions.
Gerhard Richter is capable of making realistic art, such as the painting of his wife. Those type of paintings do not have the capability to have multiple meanings, however when he creates abstract art, he leaves it to the viewer to decide. How can we not appreciate this?
Placing the Richter's in the room after the Monet Water Lilies was brilliant. Even more moving than the Rothko room.
Great and very informative!
Richter is interesting to me, I like his experiments. Too many think they can simply slop paint on a canvas, say clever things about it and somehow make the mess a piece of art by doing so. I don't know about all of his works but quite sometime ago I saw his work in Chicago, the works were very impressive and the non-representational works were just as impressive as the photo realism. He proved in one series that humans can only distinguish between a relatively small number of colors and tonal values, especially if they are out of context.

Adrian might look off but he is brilliantly explaning Richters art. Also, I respect that he isn’t what others expect him to look like or how he should behave...♠️
Richter doesn't use a rubber squeegee, he uses a curved aluminium squeegee that sucks the oil paint up. He mixes using the edge and the curved surface of the tool to make these paintings.
I couldn’t Imagine trying to explain gerhard richter to people who always slam abstract art as a scam. Some people don’t “get it”
Thanks for the video
Very interesting thank you.
Yo no dejo que un tipo así hable de mi obra, un tío que parece que se halla levantado de una borrachera.
good interpretation of his work. wish I could have seen this exhibition but Tasmania is a long way from London!
Here are two forest paintings! :) here is his wife reading a magazine !!:)) how domestic. here's a steel ball on the floor, and some glass panes. And he can also work on heavy stuff, HERE'S 9/11. I gasped it was so sudden omg
so unfortunate how underappreciated abstract art is
This is not absract art, otherwise a drunk guy wouldn't be able to talk about it so casually.
@Philip Gomez The difference with those things of "decoration and design" is the important thing, which is huge. Actually the differences between things are important, rather than whats common between them.
@Philip Gomez No , it referred to the presenter.
Abstract art is the most appreciated art and that is also why it is the most expensive art.
Traducción al español, por favor.
that man needs tighter jeans
The paintings are...sooo big! :-)
Please, hold my beer...
More money, simple.
As a visual Artist i no better then to discount anyone's Art - that being said - the jury is still out on Richter for me - ?
I discounted Picasso for years now I understand Picasso and he is one of my favorites -
If a female art critic had dared show up with her hair looking like it was styled via electric shock, grungy tights and a sagging shirt, the critics would have had a heyday!!!
Sonja Gartner look at the art. Let the man wear what he wants!
Whatever Cindy's on she was clearly looking at something other than Ade's rap on Gerhard (he's so down to earth about it all; especially his impersonation of a large squeegee, luvvit)... Or mebbe she jus don't get the art thing at all. Anyway I doubt if anyone cares about an abusive foul mouthed barely literate chick and her issues over culture. Can't even see why she bothered if she felt so upset by it, why bother to watch it & also comment. Bad Dobby!
OK
El artista es Gerhard Richter no tu,..... CASI NO DEJAS VER NADA.......VAYA EGO,.....
Why that old dude is trying to pull off skinny jeans xd ? Anyway great video and paintings !
Why are you worried about it?
I have to say it. Im thinking that I will never get where sqeegy art is worth millions.
I hope you give up trying to understand art, Tony. You will simply never ever get there. Your squishy mind isn't suited for complex thought
It really is laughable along with other complex canvases made by child prodigy's and great artists. Years will accumulate into decades and scholars will still be debating their value while a banker gazes at the wonderment.
@@tonybinda6905 Again, you don't understand art and the art world
@@just4fun6671 ok. Have fun with your squeegee.
I should toss twenty years of art in the trash can according to your theory on art. CHEERS
Is this guy adrian on drugs?
+Pepe Taylor Why do you ask this Pepe. Adrian Searle appears to me to know what he is talking about and has described Richters' painting process really well. This video comes across as an intelligent portrayal of Richters work.
Seems more like a bad case of hemorrhoid.
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Sleeps in clothes.
The difference between him and most of the "abstract" painters is that he has the ability to actually make paintings that require skill. he has the skill to paint a person almost photo realisticly. Artist like him are far more original "abstract" artists then the ones that can not draw a face or a hand and just do "experimental" paintings. They are not artists they are fakers.
You are very misinformed. Realism is not art. Art is only the abstract, the imagination and emotion expressed. Realism requires great skill and technique but anybody who learns that technique can do it. Realism is copying. Abstract art is creating something that does not exist. This is what talent is. Technique is not talent. WAKE UP
Have a certain beauty but repetitive after awhile-too gimmicky----Adrian is disturbing to watch he looks very unhealthy and messy.
Mmm yes, doo doo.
Gerhard Richter - tedious artist, praised by tedious professeurs, and admired by tedious people.
E N V Y ?
Decoration.
These images are the polar opposite.
why dont i criticize myself every morning, when i take a first look in the mirror??? a could start by doing the simple and regular things in life....brush my hair, ask for help to choose my clothing and defenitly, LYCRA???? 65years old??? NOT COOL!!! (LOL)
I agree...LOL and he practically stumbles around....he actually looks like a raving drunk HAHAHA
Love Richter and totally get lost in whatever layer that captures me at any point I look... but, honestly, can someone send this guy to rehab and get him a wardrobe??? To be honest I have seen his different presentations but this one needs a serious rethink. He looks drunk and is totally distracting me. Tate can do much better than this
I wonder if they just rousted Mr. Searle out of his bed? Casual is great, but this is a bit less than casual. And his comments? Ahhh much like his wardrobe..shabby at best.
Anybody can do this,
(some context) Im a pretty good painter, portraits, landscapes what have you, I can pull them off quite well, also an illustrator and a graphic designer, made a good living from it, most people regard my work as accomplished. I started abstracts earlier this year. I have to say, Ive never been more challenged to create work that isnt just a horrible mess on a canvas. Its hard, and what Richter does, like many other 'great' abstract artists is near impossible to pull of without a lot of thought and practice. Id say that at this point I have my doubts if ill ever pull of anything as impressive as this. I think to be successful in this game, you have to have a very high understanding of many aspects of art. My point being, Its definitely not random and anybody can try but very few can do it.
I agree, it suck big time! Why? Because a machine could churn out similar paintings. And Picasso never went totally abstract either. I like art that is close to abstraction but in which there are some thoughts on forms but not this kind of mess lol...only because the painter likes fool around. If you can make your art too fast it's just not good enough.
