A unique fusion of image and sound
Two of the greatest living artists join forces in their own disciplines in Reich/Richter: Steve Reich, founder of minimal music and Gerhard Richter, who is one of the top post-war visual artists.

Filmmaker Corinna Belz brings Richter’s paintings to life in moving images in a special decor that scenographer Theun Mosk designed especially for Reich/Richter. You see explosions of colour evolve into horizontal stripes and vice versa, through a process of dividing, mirroring and repeating. Reich uses the same technique in his score. Behind the projection, the musicians are sometimes visible and sometimes not. Image and sound are thus uniquely interwoven. In addition to Reich/Richter, two famous 70s classics by Reich are also heard: Clapping Music and Four Organs. “Colourblind and intoxicated, you know: minimal music is a physical experience.” – de Volkskrant ★★★★
