I was suddenly able to see it from a different perspective—as an image that, free from all the conventional criteria I had previously associated with art, offered me a different viewpoint. It had no style, no composition, no judgment; it freed me from personal experience; at first, it had nothing at all—it was a pure image.” Gerhard Richter, quoted from: Dietmar Elger, Gerhard Richter, Maler, Cologne 2008, p. 64.
