Gerhard Richter, born 1932, is a German Contemporary artist. Richter received his BA from the Dresden Academy of Arts. 2 months before the building of the Berlin Wall, Richter escaped from East to West Germany. In West Germany he studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf with Sigmar Polke and Konrad Lueg. The three introduced the term Kapitalistischer Realismus (Capitalistic Realism) as an anti-style of art. Gerhard Richter has been shown in museums and galleries all over the world. His fourth retrospective, Gerhard Richter: 40 Years of Painting, curated by Robert Storr, opened at New York's Museum of Modern Art in February 2002, then traveled to Chicago, San Francisco, and Washington, DC.

Art Market Data

Gerhard Richter Price Development
  • More About this Chart
    • The chart shows the annual average premium prices of lots sold by the artist, which are calculated by dividing the total sales volume of the premium prices of all lots sold by the number of lots sold. For 2009, the data included in the calculations is current through the 15th of June. The charts will be updated every three months.

      The data is culled from the artnet Price Database, which has collected auction sales results for over twenty years.

      Prices are stated in USD in order to facilitate comparison and analysis of the market reports. When sales took place in another currency, the conversion of that amount into USD was done on the basis of the average conversion rate applicable on the day of the sale.

      Although most auction houses these days report transactions in prices that include a buyer’s premium, some auction houses report only the hammer price. Based on an analysis of historical auction catalogs, we apply a formula to all records with hammer prices to estimate the effect of a buyer’s premium. All prices used in the charts are either reported in or equated to hammer price plus buyer’s premium.
