Katy Siegel's commentary was better than the other two I thought, more informative and detailed

Richter, while a very rigorous thinker, is certainly not a duchampian. He is always for beauty and composition in painting in service of his ideas. To say Richter is a mere illustrator of ideas is terribly wrongheaded. Baselitz is no Picasso, he has not the line, nor the color, nor the composition. He aspires to De Kooning but is closest to Guston. In Guston and Baseltz figural expressionism becomes mannerist, and is indeed the fore-runner to the endless neo-expresionism where this mannerism continues to lose a sense of narrative and vitality, becoming merely a style.
