About the Item

"IBM G.EL.2, 18.1.1984" is an offset print created by renowned German artist Gerhard Richter. Based on a watercolor completed on January 18, 1984, this piece is notable for its vibrant use of yellow, red, blue, and black. Published in 1987, the edition includes 75 copies signed and numbered in pencil, 20 artist’s proofs marked with Roman numerals and "e.a." (épreuve d'artiste), and 12 unmarked impressions. This particular piece is one of the 12 unmarked impressions, with the graphite markings, without numbering present in the other editions. This version allows viewers to focus solely on the visual composition without distractions, showcasing Richter's mastery in blending color and form. The title "IBM G.EL.2, 18.1.1984" and the artwork's creation date reflect Richter's systematic approach to titling, often using catalog-like labels to maintain objectivity and avoid influencing viewers' interpretations. The use of IBM in the title may hint at themes of technology and modernity, underscoring the artist’s engagement with contemporary issues. Shipping and Handling: We ship Worldwide.

Untitled Abstract Picture (Limited edition authorized promotional reproduction)
By Gerhard Richter
Located in New York, NY
Gerhard Richter Abstract Painting (one plate) - artist authorized, 2002 Offset lithographic reproduction on GardaMatt Art 250 GSM paper with full margins. (Artist Authorized) Not signed, edition of 3433 12 1/2 × 16 1/2 inches Unframed This striking limited edition color plate, printed on GardaMatt Art 250 GSM paper with full margins, was published on the occasion of the major twin Richter exhibitions at the San Francisco Museum of Art (Abstract Pictures) and the Museum of Modern Art (Gerhard Richter, 40 Years of Painting), and it depicts Richters 1999 Oil on Aluminum abstract picture, catalogue raisonne reference, 858-6. This print is unframed, unnumbered and in excellent condition. More about Gerhard Richter: Gerhard Richter was born in 1932 in Dresden, Germany. Throughout his career, Richter has negotiated the frontier between photography and painting, captivated by the way in which these two seemingly opposing practices speak to and challenge one another. From exuberant canvases rendered with a squeegee and acerbic color charts to paintings of photographic detail and close-ups of a single brushstroke, Richter moves effortlessly between the two mediums, reveling in the complexity of their relationship, while never asserting one above the other. Richter’s life traces the defining moments of twentieth-century history and his work reverberates with the trauma of National Socialism and the Holocaust. In the wake of the Second World War, Richter trained in a Socialist Realist style sanctioned by East Germany’s Communist government. When he defected to West Germany in 1961, a month before the Berlin Wall was erected, Richter left his entire artistic oeuvre up to that point behind. From 1961 to 1964—alongside Blinky Palermo and Sigmar Polke—Richter studied at the Staatliche Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, where he began to explore the material, conceptual, and historical implications of painting without ideological restraint. Richter’s earliest paintings in Düsseldorf, stimulated by a fascination with current affairs and popular culture, responded to images from magazines and newspaper cuttings. Through the 1960s, Richter continued to address found and media images of subjects such as military jets, portraits, and aerial photographs. Notably, he reimagined family pictures he had smuggled from East Germany that included his smiling uncle Rudi, dressed in a Nazi uniform...
