In celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the Color Charts inception, an exhibition of  Gerhard Richter's iconic paintings, selected from the artist’s original nineteen, 'Color Charts,' produced in 1966 is to be mounted at Dominique Lévy in London. Presented with the support of the Gerhard Richter Archive, the exhibition is the first exhibition to feature a small but vital group of works from this series since their inaugural appearance at Galerie Friedrich & Dahlem, Munich in 1966. The exhibition also includes a group of Color Charts painted in 1971, when Richter reexamined and expanded the series after a five-year hiatus.
