OVERVIEW
About the artist
Based in Berlin and Hamburg.
1962: Was born in Lütjenburg, GermananyDaniel Richter attended Hochschule für bildendende Künste Hamburg from 1991-1995. 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. Between 2004 and 2006 he served as Professor for Painting at the Universität der Künste, Berlin. Since 2006, he has been teaching at Akademie der bildenden Künste, Vienna. He is married to director Angela Richter.
Initially, Richter did abstract paintings, with a cosmos of forms intensely colourful to the point of being psychedelic – somewhere between graffiti and intricate ornamentation. Since 2002 he has painted large-scale scenes filled with figures, often inspired by reproductions from newspapers or history books.Other artists that may interest you
