Daniel Richter

The book "Daniel Richter" offers a comprehensive analysis of the artistic work of one of the most significant contemporary painters. Daniel Richter, born in 1962 in Eutin, Schleswig-Holstein, has established himself as an internationally recognized artist over the past two decades. This work traces the development of his oeuvre through more than 200 images of his works. The author, Eva Meyer-Hermann, highlights the interplay between abstraction and figuration, demonstrating that these transitions are not arbitrary but the result of conscious artistic decisions. Richter consistently finds new ways to be modern in a medium often considered outdated. His works challenge viewers without imparting moral lessons. This publication is a valuable resource for anyone interested in contemporary art and the evolution of painting in post-war Germany.
