Gerhard Richter
Panorama

While preparing for major retrospective at Tate Modern, Gerhard Richter talks about his life and work with Nicholas Serota, Director of Tate.

The film first takes us to his studio in Cologne, where his assistant Norbert shows us behind the scenes, before moving to the Tate Modern for the installation, providing a rare chance to see Nicholas Serota at work hanging a show.
