Lutz Bacher
American artist (1943–2019)
Lutz Bacher (21 September 1943[1] – 14 May 2019)[2] was an artist closely associated with Berkeley, California since the 1970s, and who lived and worked in New York City from 2013 until her death.[3] The name Lutz Bacher was a pseudonym, and the artist did not publicly reveal a former name.[4] She was once considered a figure with "cult" status—known for being "legendary but elusive" in the California art scene.[5] Since the early 2000s, her work increasingly gained mainstream recognition.[6][7][8][9]
Lutz Bacher was married to the astrophysicist Donald C.
Backer for almost 40 years.[10]
Themes
Bacher's body of work has been described as "eclectic,"[5] "rough, open-ended,"[4] and "disturbing."[8] It consists of works in a variety of formats, including videotapes, photographs, and other mixed media.[
