Nelly Richard (Caen, France, 1948) is a French-born cultural theorist now based in Chile and editor of the Revista de crítica cultural. Among her books are The Insubordination of Signs and Cultural Residues.

Critic Jon Beasley-Murray writes in a review of her work that "Nelly Richard has been for over two decades the most tireless campaigner and theorist for the potential and role of art, first in dictatorial and then in postdictatorial Chile, and more broadly in the current neoliberal and postideological condition that first emerged under General Augusto Pinochet but now affects us all."[1]
