Hans Richter,  Hans Richter

About the Item

First edition, published by Thames and Hudson, 1971. Pioneer of Dada and the Experimental Film. This book is both an autobiography of Hans Richter’s life, and an artist monograph. Richter’s many anecdotes, words of wisdom and poems sit hand in hand with the development of his artist practice, and position in the art world. The book is a poetic display of a life influenced by war, women, society and several major art movements, and perhaps more importantly Richter’s own influence on the art world through painting, performance, experimental film and teaching.
