KORTE INHOUD

Gerhard Richter's '4900 Farben' ('4900 Colours'), 2007, is a major new work comprising bright monochrome squares randomly arranged in a grid formation to create stunning sheets of kaleidoscopic colour. It was created in parallel to his design for the south transept window of Cologne Cathedral, unveiled in August 2007, which is made up of 11,500 hand-blown squares of glass in 72 colours.n'4900 Farben' consists of 196 panels of 25 coloured squares that can be re-configured in eleven variations, from one large-scale piece to multiple, smaller paintings. Richter has developed 'Version II' - 49 identically-sized paintings, each 97 x 97 cm - especially for the Serpentine Gallery. The fully-illustrated catalogue includes texts by Benjamin Buchloh, Peter Gidal and Birgit Pelzer.nExhibition schedule: Serpentine Gallery, London, September 23-November 16, 2008
