It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Lothar Baumgarten.

In a career spanning five decades, Lothar drew wide acclaim and respect for a singularly powerful and diverse body of work, from photography, to 16 mm films, slide projections, recordings, drawings, prints, artist books, short stories, as well as site-specific works, wall drawings and architecture-related interventions.

Today we mourn the loss of this extraordinary artist, a powerful writer, and a brilliant friend.

We will remember him always and the impact he has had on our lives will live on in his work.
