The document discusses paintings by three artists: Chris Ofili's 1998 work "Afrodizzia" which combines rich patterns, collage, and 3D elements to explore identity and African culture; Gerhard Richter's 1988 "AbstractesBild" that uses layered, blurred, and scraped paint over photographs to depict space and illusion; and Sigmar Polke's untitled 1989 work with multi-layered, varied techniques including screenprinting with transparent sheets, paints, lacquers, and minerals as a subject of dreams and veils.
