A squatter turned star artist whose paintings sell for no less than six figures at auction, Daniel Richter has successfully transformed punk disaffection into art.

To create qualitative art means to be in-tune with both the world and oneself. It also means finding new solutions to age-old problems regarding form and understanding the ever-shifting shape of the cultural landscape. This is how Richter had come to fame in the early 2000s. His often large-scale, reference- saturated paintings spoke of recent German history while investigating new ways to represent the human figure. They also encapsulated the neo-punk zeitgeist of the early 21st century, with its exalted sense of doom. In Goyaesque scenes, migrants drifted on boats and the police clashed with the mob. Richter’s characters were modeled from night vision, X-ray and thermal imagery. They stood as if petrified by the heat of flames, or by the all-seeing power of surveillance technology. The painter electrified the art scene.

Today, Richter has returned to a visual language much closer to where it all started in the mid-1990s: abstraction. He still, however, takes cues from aspects of visual culture where violence is present, even if only covertly, such as in porn and cartography. Talking from his studio in Hamburg, he ponders about love, his birds’ addiction to tea, and going back to figuration. These great photoos are made for ZOO by photographer @hanna_putz
