// Untitled A by Daniel Richter is a 2016-2017 silkscreen print that fuses traditional Japanese art aesthetics with unexpected contemporary elements, creating a surreal and humorous composition. The artwork features a black-and-white image of intricately drawn figures, reminiscent of classical Japanese woodblock prints, with expressive faces and dynamic poses. Superimposed on this traditional scene are photographic images of small pickles and a halved apricot, which add an absurd and playful contrast to the intensity of the underlying artwork. This juxtaposition of classical art with modern, everyday objects invokes themes of cultural collision, absurdity, and the disruption of historical narratives. Richter’s work here invites viewers to explore the boundaries of art and humor, merging high art with kitsch in a way that provokes both amusement and reflection.

What is figurative art?
Sometimes known as Figurativism, figurative art refers to sculptures and paintings that are clearly or specifically derived from real objects, making them representational. The term figurative art is often used in contrast to abstract art. However, since the emergence of abstract art, figurative art has come to describe any form of modern art that has strong references to the real world or actual situations.
