Daniel Richter: Lonely Old Slogans

Daniel Richter: Lonely Old Slogans

Regarded as one of the most important painters of a generation that includes Peter Doig and Tal R, German artist Daniel Richter (born 1962) arrived on the art scene in the 1990s as a highly expressive abstract painter. Even after Richterâ€™s turn to figuration since the early 2000s, he has maintained his characteristic use of brash colors and dynamic, theatrical compositions, now applied to a â€œnew kind of history painting,â€ in the thematic and formal tradition of Max Beckmann and George Grosz. Richterâ€™s history painting, however, does not aim to reproduce specific historical events but rather seeks to capture a particular contemporary spirit, marked by the death of the great political utopias. Daniel Richter: Lonely Old Slogans, published to accompany a mid-career survey exhibition, chronicles Richterâ€™s development as an artist.
