Lives and works in Munich (DE)
Lukas Kindermann´s practice is drawn from pushing the boundaries of traditional representation and technique, technology, the human hand and will. By looking to found material, information and modes of attempting to conceive the vastness of the outer world Lukas´ works mirror the universe, its matter, cartography and distant time as a monument to the future past.
Among others Lukas works have been shown at Centre Pompidou (Paris), The Living Art Museum (Reykjavík), Kunsthalle Wien (Vienna), Badischer Kunstverein (Karlsruhe), ERES-Stiftung (Munich), Kunstverein Wilhelmshöhe (Ettlingen), Haus der Kunst (Munich), Rathausgalerie (Munich), Academy of Performing Arts (Prague), Ve.sch, Raum für aktuelle Kunst (Vienna), Harbinger Project Space (Reykjavik), Broken Dimanche Press (Berlin), 'uns project space (Berlin), National Centre for Contemporary Arts (Saint Petersburg), Horst-Janssen Museum (Oldenburg), Kyrgyz National Museum of Fine Arts (Bishkek), The Bookshop Projectspace (Skaftfell), Kunstraum Super (Vienna) and Moscow Biennale for Young Art.
Lukas studied at Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design (ZKM) from 2005 to 2010 and at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich between 2010 and 2013. He teached as assistant teacher with Peter Kogler at the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich, visiting teacher for KUNO programme at the Klaipėda Faculty of Vilnius Academy of Arts, Lithuania and hold several lectureships at the University of Television and Film (HFF) Munich.
