https://www.qagoma.qld.gov.au In this three-part after hours lecture series, hear from experts and curators as they highlight one aspect of Richter's complex practice. • Gerhard Richter's landscapes are often interpreted as evoking 18th and 19th century German Romanticism and the paintings of Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840). In this instalment, Dr Andrea Bubenik considers how the lens of Romanticism both enables and complicates our understanding of the landscapes included in 'Gerhard Richter: The Life of Images.' She explores how Richter's paintings of seascapes and icebergs fostered the so-called 'arctic sublime', and the need for a shift toward the pole of ecocriticism. • Andrea Bubenik is a Senior Lecturer in Art History at the University of Queensland, Australia, who completed her PhD at Queen's University in Canada in 2007. Her monograph entitled Reframing Albrecht Dürer: The Appropriation of Art, 1528-1700 was published with Ashgate (2013), and focuses on aspects of the reception of Albrecht Dürer. Most recently Andrea co-edited and contributed an essay on reproductive printmaking to Perspectives on the Art of Wenceslaus Hollar (1607-77), forthcoming with Brepols (2017). • BLOG: https://blog.qagoma.qld.gov.au/tag/ge... • ‘Gerhard Richter: The Life of Images’ is at the Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA) Australia until 4 February 2018.
