Manchester International Festival at the Whitworth : Richter / Pärt

9 Jul-19 Jul 2015

Overview

This extraordinary project, several years in the planning, brings together two of the world´s most influential and enduring cultural figures. In early autumn 2013, Hans Ulrich Obrist and Alex Poots introduced artist Gerhard Richter and composer Arvo Pärt for the first time. As a result of that meeting in Dresden, both men made work inspired by and dedicated to the other.
