Reich Richter Pärt

Reich Richter Pärt was a duo of 2019 live immersive interdisciplinary performance pieces wthat combined paintings, new musical compositions, and film. The work in its original form was site-specific as commissioned for and staged under the guidance of curators Hans Ulrich Obrist and Alex Poots[1] at the Shed in an architectural setting that is possessed with the ability to morph according to the work being exhibited and or performed therein.[2] The work as titled consisted of a pair of artistic collaborations: first between the German artist Gerhard Richter and the Estonian composer Arvo Pärt (which built upon a concept originally developed by Obrist and Poots for the Manchester International Festival), and secondly between Richter and the American composer Steve Reich. The second part of the work also featured a collaboration between Richter and the filmmaker Corinna Belz, a film based on the artist's 2012 book Patterns.[3][4]
