Some Gerhard Richter's quotes. Goto "Gerhard Richter's quotation" section for more.Without form, communication stops... without form, you have everybody burbling on to themselves, whenever and however, things that no one else can understand and - rightly - no one else is interested in.
Tags: Else, Themselves, UnderstandEvery museum is full of nice things. That's the opposite of before. It was important things or serious things. Now we have interesting things.
Tags: Full, Nice, SeriousGood art in general aspires to something, as a good painting aspires to something, almost spiritual or holy.
Tags: Art, Good, SpiritualGray is the color... the most important of all... absent of opinion, nothing, neither/nor.
Tags: Color, Nor, OpinionI am ridiculously old-fashioned.
Tags: PaintI do see myself as the heir to a vast, great, rich culture of painting - of art in general - which we have lost, but which places obligations on us.
Tags: Art, Great, LostI don't dare to think my paintings are great. I can't understand the arrogance of someone saying, 'I have created a big, important work.'
Tags: Great, Someone, WorkI don't think I can do this - painting under observation. It's the worst thing there is, worse than being in the hospital.
Tags: Painting, Worse, WorstI have always been structured. What has changed is the proportions. Now it is eight hours of paperwork and one of painting.
Tags: Changed, Hours, PaintingI have painted my family so frequently because they are the one who really affect me the most.
Tags: Affect, Family, FrequentlyIt's our culture, Christian history, that's what formed me. Even as an atheist, I believe. We're just built that way.
Tags: Christian, Culture, HistoryNow that we do not have priests and philosophers any more, artists are the most important people in the world.
Tags: Artists, PriestsA father draws boundaries and calls a halt, whenever necessary. As I didn't have that, I was able to stay childishly naive that much longer - so I did what I liked, because there was nobody stopping me, even when I got it wrong.
Tags: Able, Father, WrongI believe in painting and I believe in eating too. What can we do? We have to eat, we have to paint, we have to live. Of course, there are different ways to survive. But it's my best option.
Tags: Best, Eat, PaintingI go to the studio every day, but I don't paint every day. I love playing with my architectural models. I love making plans. I could spend my life arranging things.
Tags: Life, Love, MakingI have no time for specialized concerns, working themes or variations that lead to mastery... I like the indefinite, the boundless; I like continual uncertainty. Other qualities may be more conducive to achievement, publicity, success; but they are all outworn - as outworn as ideologies, opinions, concepts and names for things.
