Louise Lawler is a photographer known for her portraits of other artists’ work, in which she gives special attention to all the connecting tissue that holds and frames it: walls, floors, hallways, storage units, workers’ hands. As its title suggests, her latest book, “Louise Lawler and/or Gerhard Richter,” published by Schirmer/Mosel, is devoted to photographs taken over the past twenty years of art by Gerhard Richter—including photographs of Lawler’s own photographs of Gerhard Richter pieces (who himself uses photographs and other forms of media in his paintings). The result is a playful exchange among artwork and artist, photograph and painting, and all the trappings that surround them. Click-through for a selection of Lawler’s work: http://nyr.kr/LZ5V3t
