Charles Recher (c. 1950 – January 26, 2017) was an American installation artist and filmmaker who lived and worked in Miami Beach, Florida. Recher created in excess of one hundred films and videos. His work ranged from the film "Kwagh-Hir (Thing of Magic)", a documentary of the theater tradition of the Tiv people of Nigeria, to "Cars & Fish", Miami Performing Arts Center's inaugural video installation, which cast 600-foot-long swirling images onto adjacent building façades during Art Basel/Miami Beach in 2005.

Recher held numerous guest lectureships and workshops at national and international institutions, including the University of Havana (Cuba). His work was selected for the "Masters of the Avant-Garde" program at Harvard University Carpenter Center for the Arts, where he presented his work as a guest lecturer. For fifteen years he taught the experimental film and video program that he originated for Miami-Dade College's Wolfson Campus. His awards and fellowships include Cultural Consortium Fellowships, National Endowment for the Arts regional grants, and State of Florida Individual Artist Fellowships.[1] [2][3]

Recher died on January 26, 2017, at the age of 66.[4]
