James Richards (born 1983 in Cardiff, UK) is renowned for his
provocative and intense moving-image works that collage together a
wide range of materials sourced from home movies, private and
public archives, as well as TV clips, combined with rich musical
soundtracks. Richards’ art draws on the relentless flood of
images that has become a hallmark of the 21st century. His works
filter, sort, and condense collected materials into a space where
personal interiority and digital materiality meet. Alongside his
films, Richards has created exhibition projects based on archival
research and ongoing dialogues with other artists. Published to
accompany the eponymous exhibition at Haus Mödrath, this title
brings together sound and video installations as well as sculptural
works, while outlining the relationships and influences that have
informed Richards’ practice, including collaborative projects
with long-standing partners, works created by close friends, and
artists that have inspired him. With work and contributions by
Tolia Astakhishvili, Albrecht, Becker, Christian Friedrich, Bastien
Gachet, Isa Genzken, Margarethe Held, Adrian Hermanides, Anne
McGuire, Steve Reinke, Rachel Reupke, JX Williams; Texts: Chris
McCormack, Joseph Henry, James Richards. Text in English and
