'Gerhard Richter Painting,' directed by Corinna Belz, is scheduled for Thursday, October 29, 2026, from 2 to 4 pm; its listed running time is 97 minutes.
The film documents Gerhard Richter working on a series of large abstract paintings in his studio during the spring and summer of 2009.
In quiet, highly concentrated images, the documentary provides a fly-on-the-wall perspective of the very personal, tension-filled process of artistic creation.
It shows Richter destroying multiple canvases before his final compositions emerge.
Taking seriously Richter’s statement that painting is “another form of thinking,” the film follows how he translates his thoughts onto a blank canvas.
