Gerhard Richter - Cage Prints - 2020 SOLD OUT
HENI Editions announced six new limited edition prints with Gerhard Richter, based off Richter’s six monumental ‘Cage’ paintings.
In the ‘Cage’ paintings, square and abstract, Richter proceeded to push and pull seemingly endless layers of paint across the surfaces of his canvases in horizontal or vertical bands using his self-made squeegee. The bands of colour – grey, red, green, yellow, white and blue – are intermittently destroyed by Richter’s squeegee. Richter’s fluid technique produced heavily painted canvases which are rough and textured and scraped to reveal the obscured layers beneath in exciting bursts of colour.
Normally on display in Tate as part of a long term loan to the museum, the ‘Cage’ series, painted in 2006, pay tribute to the great experimental composer John Cage (1912-1992), who Richter greatly admired and listened to during the painting of these works. The paintings were first exhibited in the Venice Biennale in 2007.

Does it concern you or bother you that they are USD $6K and not signed, just numbered in an edition of 200?
I agree. For $6k each you’d think the least the artist could do was hand sign them. I notice that increasingly with art – “stamped signature,” big editions (hundreds of copies) and yet thousands of dollars, especially with artists like Banksy and Hockney. Not impressed. Better off supporting less hyped artists.
