Richter is widely regarded as one of the worlds leading contemporary artists, and remarkably this was the first show there has ever been of his portraits. The exhibition comprised 54 works, from his first portrait in the 1960s to work completed in 2007.

Stanton Williams worked closely with curator, Paul Moorhouse, to turn the single gallery into a suite of intimate spaces.The gallery windows, blocked for many years, were uncovered and the window recesses used to house four large lightboxes, which created a rhythm to the exhibition and an illusion of natural light.
