Kamila B. Richter (born 1976) is a Czech media artist.
From 2000 until 2002 Richter lived in South Africa and studied at the Technikon Natal, Durban, where she obtained her master's degree in 2001.
In 2010 Richter finished her Doctor of Philosophy at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague.
Richter is interested in everything digitalized. For Richter, the camera’s blurred image is a proper reflection of reality. She combines mediatised reality with old master style oil painting technique, which she layers in weeklong work stages to finish her versions of mediatised streetscapes, materializing the tension of contemporary visual culture. [1] Richter's work makes data streams and their actions visible (Emporium Spirit, [2] New York Stock Exchange visualization, 2005, Black Vortex, Prague Stock Exchange visualization, 2006, and others). [3]
Richter was a programmer of the early web era (0-System, web project reflecting the medium of the web, 1997 and M-System, participatory web game project, 1998). [4]
Since 2005 – in cooperation with Michael Bielický – Richter has developed web-based, often interactive projects controlled by real-time data fed from the Internet. Usually, market and stock exchange data, news, twitter, and other data sources guide her animated stories. The projects include Lost Objects, National Theatre Prague (2015) [5] and Lost, Apollonia, Strasbourg (2016). [6] Their solo exhibition LOST (2017) at the Centro de Arte Contemporáneo Wifredo Lam in Havana, Cuba, ended after the second extension. [7]
Since 2011, Richter has utilized outdated mobile phones with low-resolution cameras to document the nighttime scenes of cities in Europe, Asia, South America, and North America. These images typically depict blurred human figures and are captured in technically degraded environments, often illuminated by backlight.[ citation needed]
Richter has participated in numerous international exhibitions, festivals, and projects. Along with virtual exhibitions and artworks shown at the Biennale Sevilla, [8] Museum Kunstpalast, [9] Telegrafenamt Vienna, [10] Art Center Nabi Seoul in South Korea, [11] the Künstlerhaus Vienna, [12] the DOX in Prague [13] and the ZKM Museum für Neue Kunst in Karlsruhe. [14]
Richter had a group exhibition at the 2nd Zlín Youth Salon (2000). [15] And her first billboard project in the city of Zlín, Czech Republic, titled Pure Love, exhibited as part of the 3rd Zlín Youth Salon (2003). [16] Later she continued with Guerilla public billboard projects in Prague, Czech Republic (2004). Her second major group exhibition was the seminal World as Structure, Structure as Image Exhibition at Gallery At the White Unicorn, Klatovy, Czech Republic, in 2003. [17] A retrospective of Richter's work in collaboration with Michael Bielicky was held at the Centro de Arte Contemporáneo Wifredo Lam in Havana, Cuba. [7] Her first major painting exhibition ended in September 2019. [1] A retrospective of Richter's work in collaboration with Michael Bielicky is held at the ZKM Karlsruhe until march 2020. [18] Her work with Michael Bielický, "SEVENTYNINE" (2021), was exhibited at the Kunsthalle Praha in 2022. [19]
Richter's work also appeared in seminal group exhibitions such as Biennale Moscow, Moscow (2011), Havana Biennale, Sevilla (2012), Globale, ZKM (2015), and Open Codes, ZKM (2017).
