Encounters from Dada Till Today
In English for the first time, the pioneering Dadaist's insights and remembrances of a lifetime working side-by-side with the leading modern artists of the twentieth century. In contrast to the image of the lone artist creating in isolation, Richter's long and prolific career was fueled by his encounters with others. With appearances by Caler, Cocteau, Duchamp, Eisenstein, Fellini, Hoch, Kaprow, Malevich, Mondrian, Man Ray, and Tzara (to name just a few), Encounters from Dada till Today documents the collaborative aspirations of a generation of modern artists, as well as testifies to a lifetime of friendships forged in creativity.
