Daniel Luedtke
Area Head, Printmaking + Book Arts
Associate Professor
Department of Art
Luedtke uses printmaking, ceramics, drawing and sculpture to respond to ways that health, mortality, and bodily pleasure are quantified and assigned value. These ideas are often illustrated by emphasizing the physicality of printed images and information in installations and other flat-but-dimensional objects. Luedtke received an MFA in Printmedia from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and a Bachelor of Music from Augsburg University in Minnesota.
Luedtke’s work has been exhibited nationally and internationally in galleries and museums such as the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, the Tom of Finland Foundation in Los Angeles, the Museum of Art and Design in New York and Arprim in Montreal. His work has been published in printmaking anthologies by Chronicle Books and Princeton Architectural Press. Previously, Luedtke was a Lecturer in the Contemporary Practices (Foundations) Department at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
