Description: With Tiger (1965/2023), Gerhard Richter revisits one of his most iconic subjects: the photographic blur applied to an animal image. Created from a 1965 painting, this hybrid halftone print published in 2023 offers a faithful and nuanced rendering of Richter’s style — between photography, painting and abstraction. The tiger emerges in a blurry setting of vegetation, as if captured in a rapid dash. The image is deliberately blurred, almost vibrant, evoking movement, speed and the instability of visual perception. This work testifies to Richter’s technical and poetic mastery, in his ability to transfigure a banal image into a deep meditation on looking.
