...Germany's Hans Richter, 79, and his mastery of the motion-picture medium has long been acknowledged by directors from Fellini to Jean-Luc Godard. In recent years, Richter's unmoving pictures have also been gaining new attention, and they are featured in an exhibit of more than 80 Richter drawings, paintings, collages and films at Manhattan's Finch College Museum. Coupled with a smaller display at the Byron Gallery, the show provides a unique opportunity to see how, as the artist puts it, "film and painting overlap with modern art.
