John Douglas Millar discusses the Gerhard Richter exhibition at Tate Modern: ‘As this exhibition well demonstrates, Richter’s work contains a dual critique that acts as a painterly plague on both houses of the Cold War divide. There is the desire, on the one hand, to suspend and/or indict ideological thinking, coupled with the will to mourn its effects on his country and his people.’
