Quotes by Gerhard Richter  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“To talk about paintings is not only difficult but perhaps pointless too. You can only express in words what words are capable of expressing-- what language can communicate. Painting has nothing to do with that.”
Gerhard Richter

“I believe that art has a kind of rightness, as in music, when we hear whether or not a note is false”
Gerhard Richter

“Art is the highest form of hope.”
Gerhard Richter
