The artist's book "War Cut", designed by Prof. Gerhard Richter (*1932), focuses on the abstract painting [WVZ: 648-2] from 1987, which is located in the Musée d'art moderne de la ville de Paris. In May 2002, Richter photographed close-ups of the painting, in which dark colors predominate and whose rough appearance is striking. Two years later, Richter took up these photographs again for his book project War Cut. 216 detailed photographs are juxtaposed with 216 texts from the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung of March 20 and 21, 2003 - the beginning of the Iraq War. While Gerhard Richter arranges the images according to aesthetic criteria, the texts are mostly printed chronologically. The layout of the book follows a formal grid: both photographs and texts fill the 10 x 15 cm area.
