Biography

Lutze was born in Berlin and attended high school there, spending a year abroad in France. She studied fine arts at the Berlin University of the Arts under Marwan Kassab-Bachi, and was a master student (Meisterschülerin) in 2002. During her studies, she completed programs at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia and the École Supérieure des Beaux-Arts, Genève. Since 2002, she has maintained a studio in Berlin funded by a long-term municipal grant.

Artistic work

Lutze’s work explores architectural and urban space through painting, drawing, and mixed media. She often focuses on imagined environments that contrast rational structure with dreamlike or impossible perspectives. Her compositions emphasize color, surface, and light, and critics have noted the frequent absence of human figures, which lends an ambiguous or contemplative quality. Lutze has stated: "The places I show do not exist that way. I am interested in perspective and surface – I like to shift everything against each other. The game with colours, perspective and light, that's my language."

Exhibitions and collections

Her work is held in the Sammlung Holtmann (Holtmann Collection), a private collection.

Awards and residencies

Lutze has received art grants and scholarships in Germany and abroad, such as the Neustart Kultur stipend (2021), a Villa Vigoni Fellowship (2004), and a NaFöG Berlin Scholarship (2002). She has held artist residencies in Iceland, Italy, India, and Switzerland. Additional recognitions include the Käthe-Dorsch Prize for Printmaking (2006) and foundation grants.
