    • Synopsis
    • Gerhard Richter, among the world's most important living painters, exposes his studio and working process for the first time in decades. A master of the abstract - we see his fascinating method of constructing work with applications of colour and a modified "squeegie" - and also of contemporary portraiture, Richter comes across as a highly self-critical, sometimes grumpy and philosophically intense genius.
