13 New Artists at a Glance

In addition to 90 new editions, we are expanding the LUMAS portfolio this spring with 13 exceptional positions. From new voices of the present to artists of the century – what they all share is our curatorial commitment to quality and originality. An overview of our new artists – and what sets them apart from their contemporaries.

Dorothee Liebscher belongs to a new generation of the Leipzig School that does not merely depict space, but reimagines it. In her work, nature and architecture merge into a symbiotic relationship, inviting viewers into layered, parallel worlds.

The New York–based rising star turns water into his canvas. Drawing on the centuries-old Ebru technique, he fuses tradition and innovation into a distinctive visual language.

With roots in haute couture, Burra has developed an aesthetic of cool elegance and psychological depth, placing the female figure at its center. Her meticulously staged portraits combine digital painting with photographic clarity, creating a visual language that transcends fashion photography.

Tabita Pietsch transforms Palm Springs architecture into precise visual compositions. Her unmistakable signature—defined by clarity, overexposure, and a distinctive color palette—has earned her global recognition and international awards.

Using long exposure times, the Austrian fine art photographer—known for his powerful, award-winning black-and-white compositions—reduces landscapes to their essence. Here, he demonstrates that this radical reduction can be translated just as precisely into color, balancing minimalism with atmospheric density.

Thanassis Krikis is among the most sought-after photographers for international fashion magazines such as Vogue and Numéro. His work combines editorial precision with a clear artistic vision—high fashion distilled to attitude and composition.

Through techniques such as light painting and multiple exposure, Mazzola creates images that deliberately resist singular interpretation. Her work moves between memory, dream, and abstraction, revealing that intensity arises not from volume, but from presence.

Darko C. Nikolić merges Bauhaus tradition with contemporary perceptual art. Through his concept of “introspective constructivism,” he develops a unique visual language between abstraction and Op Art—creating not images, but systems.

From portrait artist to internationally recognized figure, Reza Torabi combines collage and painting into a complex, dynamic, and experimental visual language. His work captures and reinterprets the pulse of metropolitan life, distinguished by its remarkable versatility.

Influenced by her studies in Barcelona, Lilly Muth derives an independent painterly language from architecture. Her works unite structural clarity with atmospheric lightness, forming a precise contemporary position between design and painting with a strong sense of identity.

Starting from real architectural motifs, Marcijuš creates speculative visual worlds that oscillate between past and present. His work blends photographic experience with digital processes into atmospherically dense, theatrically composed scenes—marked by narrative depth and visual originality.

One of the most influential voices in contemporary art, Marina Abramović has fundamentally redefined the boundaries of art as a pioneer of performance. With Maria/Marina, she condenses this approach into an image of profound emotional intensity—making a globally museum-established artistic position available to collectors in this form for the first time.

As a steel sculptor, Hans Schüle explores how complex structures can emerge from simple modules. His sculptures appear both precisely constructed and organically grown—a distinctive body of work that rethinks material, space, and movement.
