THE MAN WHO WON'T CONFORM: GERHARD RICHTER

 

At the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris - a phenomenal building designed by the late Frank Gehry (1929-2025) -  an epic retrospective of work by artist Gerhard Richter is on display until March 2, 2026.

 

The exhibition is co-curated by Sir Nicholas Serota and Dieter Schwarz who do a great job to reveal the complexity and genius of the German-born artist (1932).
