About the artist:
Marina Richter (*1962) is a graphic artist, painter, and creator of Czech and foreign stamps. She was born in Moscow, where she studied at a French lyceum and the Secondary School of Applied Arts, specializing in miniatures and icons. Since 1983, she has lived and worked in Prague.
In 1990, she graduated from UMPRUM (Academy of Arts, Architecture, and Design in Prague) with a specialization in illustration and graphic design. Currently, she focuses on fine art graphics, creating ex-libris, drawing, and illustration. In graphic art, she uses etching techniques, but she primarily works with lithography, which she prints in the workshop of master Petr Korbelář. These are masterful works, as can be seen, for example, in her ex-libris and fine art graphics.
Thematically, Marina Richter connects classic Japanese woodcut forms with the lithography technique. Many of her themes also come from antiquity, the Middle Ages, or mysticism. Her artistic signature is clear and distinct; her works are part of private collections in many countries, including the Czech Republic, Germany, France, Italy, USA, Belgium, Switzerland, Japan, and Russia.
