Richter's PAINT.

I saw the movie "Gerhard Richter Painting" which was featured at the Reel Artists film festival at Tiff Lightbox in Toronto. I've been a long time admirer of Richter's work so it was a real treat to see the master at work on a BIG screen. The added bonus was that the crowd in attendance was full of artists and art enthusiasts. It's not very often that you get to watch a movie with that kind of company, so yay!
Although I expected the documentary to be better than it lived up to be there were some great moments. l especially loved the sound, like when Richter dragged thick paint across, and over, the surface of his work. God Bless PAINTERS!
