Gerhard Richter’s, “Lines which do not exist,” a new iteration of an exhibition first presented at mima, Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art, UK, in 2009. Presenting a selection of 50 abstract graphite, watercolor, and ink on paper drawings made from 1966 to 2005. While Richter’s painting has enjoyed critical acclaim throughout the world, his drawing practice remains more opaque and enigmatic. This exhibition will bring together Richter’s works on paper for the first time in the United States to explore his complex relationship to drawing by highlighting the asymptotic path between drawing and his work in other mediums, and charting his independent and often inconclusive investigations into representation and perception. The installation will consist of constellations of drawings arranged on shelves irrespective of chronology or technique, material, or scale. Suggesting something more open, adjustable, or even unstable, the exhibition design will allow previously unexplored connections to emerge between Richter’s landscape, mechanical, schematic, abstract, and autographic drawings.
