Lothar Osterburg is a German native living in Hudson Valley, NY. He is known as artist, master printer and teacher of photogravure. He completed art school at the Art Academy Braunschweig in Germany and received his training as Master Printer at Crown Point Press in San Francisco. He has shown internationally and has work in major collections. He is the recipient of numerous prestigious awards including a Guggenheim Fellowship, an Academy Award in Art, from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, two New York Foundations for the Arts Fellowships, and a 2018 Jordan Schnitzer Award for excellence in Printmaking. He currently teaches at Bard College, NY.
Working from memory, Osterburg creates small-scale models out of readily available or found material, which he stages and photographs through a magnifying glass or macro lens. The scenes are thus brought to life size dimensions and printed in the 19th century photographic process of copperplate photogravure.
