Description - Daniel Richter by Susanne Figner
Outsider and Adventurer Daniel Richter has remained true to his characteristic outsider and adventurer theme in his latest paintings. At centre of the works we have the figure of the "Levantine Old Man of the Mountain with the Assassins." It is that attested story of young Muslims in the Early Middle Ages who, as weak-willed agents of the leader of the archaic sect in a parallel universe--half- paradise, half-brothel--are being dosed up on hashish and who then, having come down from their high and as suicide attackers or terrorists, plunge the Islamic world into a state of fear and panic. This catalogue presents the latest series comprising many large-format paintings for the first time and accompanies the series' premiere held at the Kestnergesellschaft in Hanover. A spectacular, oversized format guarantees optimal reproduction value; for the time being, this book is the only one available on the artist's work.
