Serpentine Gallery unveils public sculpture by Gerhard Richter

25 April - 27 October 2024 | Serpentine South, Kensington Gardens, LONDON

The Serpentine Gallery and The Royal Parks present a large-scale sculpture by the German artist Gerhart Richter. The sculpture, STRIP-TOWER, continues six decades of the artist's work.

Richter began a series of works titled Strip Painting in 2010, inspired by an earlier 'squeegee painting' titled Abstract Painting 724/4 from 1990. The paintings were photographed, scanned, and divided into two strips, then four, eight, sixteen and thirty-two. The vertical strips of the painting were stretched horizontally, laminated onto aluminium and covered with perspex.
