Английская Википедия:Evelyn Richter
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox person Evelyn Richter (31 January 1930 – 10 October 2021) was a German art photographer known primarily for social documentary photography work in East Germany.[1][2][3] She is notable for her black & white photography in which she documented working-class life, and which often showed influences of Dadaism and futurism.[4] Her photography is focused on people in everyday life, including children, workers (especially women), artists and musicians.
She taught photography both at the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst Leipzig, where she had studied, from 1981, as in the 1990s, at the Fachhochschule in Bielefeld. Her work became known internationally only after German reunification.
She received awards such as the Culture Award from the German Society for Photography, the Art Prize of Dresden, and the Bernd und Hilla Becher-Preis for her life's work.
Life and work
Richter was born in Bautzen[5] in 1930.[6]
After completing a photographic apprenticeship in Dresden[5] with Franz Fiedler and Pan Walther from 1948 to 1951, Richter worked as a laboratory assistant at the Vereinigte Kaufstätten Dresden and as a photographer at the TU Dresden.[6] In 1953, she enrolled at the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst Leipzig (HGB)[5] to study Fotografik (graphic photography) with Johannes Widmann, professor of the Institute of Photography. She also studied book design, working with Walter Schiller and Шаблон:Ill.[7] In 1955, she was removed as a student for her "independent interests and pictorial ideas which are foreign to the demands of a realistic socialist art."[8]
Richter worked as a freelance photographer,[6] working for such clients as the Leipzig Trade Fair and Sibylle magazine, while simultaneously building a body of work documenting life, work, and societal change in East Germany. Her photographs frequently explored the relationship between industrial machinery and the human (often female) operators.[4] Her focus was portraits of people in everyday situations, such as children, artists, poets and musicians, and she waited patiently for the right moment. She followed the violinist David Oistrach, travelling to concerts and rehearsals, and made a photo book about him.[7]
Richter taught photography at the HGB from 1981, as an honorary professor from 1991 to 2002.[7] In the 1990s, she also taught at the Fachhochschule in Bielefeld.[6][9]
The Evelyn Richter Archive, with over 730 of her photographs, has been housed at the Museum der bildenden Künste (Museum of Fine Arts) in Leipzig since 2009.[5][9][10] An exhibition of her works was held in 2010 on the occasion of her 80th birthday at the Leonhardimuseum Dresden.[7] In 2016, her photographies were exhibited in a group show, Gehaltene Zeit, together with works by Ursula Arnold and Arno Fischer, at the Museum der bildenden Künste, Leipzig.[11] In 2020, she was the first recipient of the Bernd und Hilla Becher-Preis of Düsseldorf for her life's work.[9][12] The jury noted: Шаблон:Blockquote
