“‘Art serves to establish community. It links us with others and with the things around us in a shared vision and effort’ – Gerhard Richter”. The quote is collected in Richter’s ‘Notes 1962’ (Archive.org registration required), from the beginning of his career, in the year after he escaped from East to West Germany and the two murals he had produced for his diplomas were painted over.
