Installation

Gerhard Richter
>> mood <<

January 10–March 4, 2023
Gagosian Shop, London

In a presentation organized in collaboration with the artist, Gerhard Richter’s >> mood << (2022), an edition of thirty-one photographic prints, will be on view at the Gagosian Shop in London’s historic Burlington Arcade. Installed upstairs on the first floor, the group documents a set of original small-format abstract works on paper exploring the controlled operation of chance and the relationship between image and reproduction. The project, which reflects Richter’s ongoing commitment to editioned works, was first exhibited alongside the paintings themselves at Fondation Beyeler, Riehen/Basel, Switzerland, in 2022.

On view on the ground floor is an artist’s book about the mood series published by Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther und Franz König in a limited edition of 950 copies. This landscape-format volume reproduces the works on paper alongside a series of short aphorisms by the artist in English and German. Other publications by and on the artist will also be available.
