Elevate Your Space with Gerhard Richter’s Abstraktes Bild (1976)
Experience the visceral power of German contemporary art with this museum-quality acrylic reproduction of Gerhard Richter’s Abstraktes Bild (Abstract Painting) 1976. This specific year marks a profound turning point in Richter’s career, as he transitioned from his iconic photo-paintings into the realm of free, gestural abstraction. This 70x100 cm (28x40″) masterpiece captures the complex layers and tectonic shifts of color that have made Richter the most influential living painter of our time.
Museum-Grade Acrylic Craftsmanship
At RedKalion, we believe a Richter reproduction requires a medium that honors its depth. This fine art print is rendered on 4mm (0.15") high-quality acrylic, providing a sleek, vibrant finish that enhances the saturation of Richter's palette. The depth of the acrylic creates a natural 3D effect, drawing the eye into the intricate textures of the work. For a modern, gallery-ready aesthetic, the piece features straight-cut corners and a transparent finish where white backgrounds are defaulted for maximum color clarity.
Curatorial Insight: The Squeegee and the Surface
Richter’s technique in the late 1970s involved a meticulous process of applying and scraping away paint using a squeegee. This method creates a dialogue between intention and chance. By choosing an acrylic print, you preserve the luminous quality of these layers, ensuring the archival-grade inks remain vivid for generations. This is not merely a wall decoration; it is a sophisticated statement of intellectual curiosity and artistic appreciation.
Seamless Installation & Durability
This premium artwork arrives ready to transform your environment. Each 70x100 cm acrylic print includes a professional hanging kit with high-grade hardware. To ensure stability and ease of mounting, pre-drilled screw holes are located 14mm (0.55") from each corner, designed for the included 15mm (0.6") screw heads and 8mm (0.31") diameter holes. This secure mounting system ensures your archival masterpiece sits perfectly against your wall, embodying the precision of a professional gallery installation.

What makes the 1976 Abstraktes Bild series historically significant?
1976 was the year Richter fully embraced free abstraction. This series moved away from figurative imagery, focusing on the material process of painting, layering, and scraping, which redefined contemporary abstract art and solidified his status as a master of the medium.
How does the acrylic material enhance the artwork?
The 4mm (0.15") acrylic provides a glass-like clarity that amplifies color vibrancy and depth. It offers a modern, high-gloss finish that protects the print while making the colors appear more luminous than traditional paper prints.
What are the physical specifications of the print?
The print measures 70x100 cm (28x40″) and is made from 4mm thick acrylic with straight-cut corners. It features transparent backgrounds defaulted to white to ensure the highest possible contrast and color accuracy.
Does the print include mounting hardware?
Yes, each print includes a specialized hanging kit with screws. There are pre-drilled holes at each corner (14mm from the edge) with an 8mm diameter to accommodate the 15mm screw heads for a secure, professional fit.
What is the archival longevity of this acrylic print?
RedKalion uses archival-grade inks and high-quality acrylic to ensure the print is resistant to UV damage and fading. This museum-quality reproduction is designed to maintain its vibrancy and structural integrity for decades.
How is the print shipped to ensure safety?
We utilize protective gallery-grade packaging to ensure your acrylic print arrives in pristine condition. Each piece is securely crated to prevent scratches or impact damage during international or domestic transit.
Why choose an acrylic print over a standard canvas?
Acrylic prints offer a sharper, more modern aesthetic with superior depth and light reflection. For abstract works like Richter's, the acrylic medium emphasizes the complex textures and subtle color gradients more effectively than textured canvas.
