About Luisa Richter

Luisa Richter, born Louise Kaelble, was a German-born Venezuelan painter, printmaker, collage artist, and educator based in Caracas. Trained in Stuttgart under Willi Baumeister (1949–1955), she relocated to Caracas in 1955 and developed an abstract practice that included informalist painting, geometric "planar spaces", and an extensive body of collage work. She participated in the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum's 1966 exhibition The Emergent Decade: Latin American Painters and Painting in the 1960's and represented Venezuela at the 38th Venice Biennale in 1978, where she exhibited twelve oil paintings and thirty collages. In Venezuela, she received the National Prize of Drawing and Engraving (1967) and the National Prize of Plastic Arts (1981). In 2002 she received the Knight's Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany, and in 2008 her hometown of Besigheim established the Luisa Richter Prize for visual arts.
