Richter, Daniel | Untitled M, 2016-2017 — available on Composition Gallery

View in a Room

// Untitled M by Daniel Richter is a 2016-2017 silkscreen print that juxtaposes bold imagery and graphic elements to explore themes of strength, vulnerability, and emotion. The composition features a powerful figure lifting a block-like form, rendered in striking blue lines against a vibrant yellow background. Above the figure, fragments of an image reveal the word LOVE in bright yellow, partly obscured by torn or overlapping paper that adds layers to the artwork. The fragmented, collage-like appearance invites viewers to consider the complexities of human experience—strength paired with tenderness, and the barriers that obscure emotional expression. Richter’s work often delves into the intersections of power, identity, and societal influence, and Untitled M uses vivid color and form to reflect on these themes in an engaging, visually dynamic way.

Daniel Richter (Germany, 1962) is a contemporary artist recognized for his dynamic and colorful large-scale paintings. His work often blends abstract and figurative elements, addressing themes of history, politics, and pop culture. A leading figure in modern German art, his pieces are featured in major international museums and collections.
