Lutz Bacher - Profile

Working since the mid 1970s out of Berkeley, California and during the 1980s in close affiliation with Pat Hearn Gallery, New York City the elusive Lutz Bacher has for the past decades enjoyed the status of an 'artists` artist'. Lutz Bacher, whose real identity remains hidden from the art public, stages herself as a shape shifting character. Constantly constructing fractured and conflicting identities, Bacher creates a body of work that is formed by interferences, superposition and dissolution. The especially for Kunstverein München produced exhibition attends to Bacher`s humorous picking away of the American Dream, respectively to its media manifestation. From video works, fanzine-like books or space installations - in "Do you love me?" mermaids cross the path of alligators, great apes bite the 'Wizard of Oz' while penetrating 'Gap' advertising campaigns. Lutz Bacher contaminates assumed visual worlds with traces of idiosyncrasy and sexual ambiguity, creating fractures that reveal the material as well as the psychological contradictions of an dream cum nightmare that is constantly driven by the question "Do you love me?" (Kunstverein München)
