拍品专文

"No ideology. No religion, no belief, no meaning, no imagination, no invention, no creativity, no hope-but painting like Nature, painting as change, becoming, emerging, being-there, thusness; without an aim, and just as right, logical, perfect and incomprehensible (as Mozart, Schoenberg, Velazquez, Bach, Raphael, etc.) We can identify the causes have led to me and, in due course, to my paintings, whose immediate cause is my inner state, my happiness, my pain, in all possible forms and intensities, until that cause no longer exists."

(30 May 1985, G. Richter, Gerhard Richter: The Daily Practice of Painting, Writings and Interviews 1962-1993, Cambridge and London, 1995, p. 121.)
