Daniel Richter (born 1962)[1] is a German artist.[2] He is based in Berlin, and was previously been active in Hamburg.[3][4] He is known for large-scale oil paintings.

Life and work

Daniel Richter was born in 1962 in Eutin, Germany.[5][6] Richter attended Hochschule für bildende Künste Hamburg[7] from 1991–1995.[citation needed] Between 1992–1996 he studied with Werner Büttner, one of the protagonists, along with Martin Kippenberger, of the revival of expressive trends in painting during the 1980s, and worked as assistant to Albert Oehlen.[8][6]

Between 2004 and 2006 he served as Professor for Painting at the Universität der Künste, Berlin.[citation needed] Since 2006, he has been teaching at Akademie der bildenden Künste, Vienna.[citation needed]

Richter's early work was abstract and colorful, described as, "psychedelic – somewhere between graffiti and intricate ornamentation".[9] Since 2002, he has painted large-scale scenes filled with figures, often inspired by reproductions from newspapers or history books.[10]

He was previously married to theatre director Angela Richter, together they have a son.[11] In 2019, he founded the publishing Company PAMPAM Publishing with his partner, Viennese photographer Hanna Putz.[3]

Art by Richter can be found in various public museum collections, including of the Museum of Modern Art,[2] the Denver Art Museum,[7] the National Gallery of Canada,[5] the Centre Pompidou, the Boros Collection in Berlin, and elsewhere.

Exhibitions

He has also shown at the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin, Museum Morsbroich in Germany, Victoria Miro Gallery in London and the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery[12] in Vancouver. In 2006 he collaborated with fellow artist Jonathan Meese on the exhibition Die Peitsche der Erinnerung. A major survey of the work opened in 2007 at the Kunsthalle in Hamburg and traveled to the Gemeentemuseum Den Haag, The Netherlands; the Centro de Arte Contemporáneo de Málaga, Spain; and the Denver Art Museum, Colorado, US (2009).

Stage design

Working for the Salzburg Festival, Richter created the stage design for two stages: for Bluebeard's Castle (2008) and for Lulu (2010). In 2010, Richter designed a series of stage sets for the Salzburg Opera's production of Lulu in conjunction with his solo museum exhibition at the Rupertinum Museum of Modern Art, Salzburg, Austria.
