The Art of Joachim Luetke - Art is no esthetic enterprise but a powerful form of magic determined to be a mediator between that strange, hostile world and us.
"Joachim Luetke creates macabre, fantastical works of art. Born in 1957, Luetke studied graphic-design in Switzerland during the late seventies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, Austria. Famous for his album cover work, Luetke is also well known for his morbidly creepy sculptures and paintings. Many of his sculptures involve realistic human forms depicting death and sickness- revealing the inner horrors that manifest deep inside a tortured human soul"

FROM HELL
"Joachim Luetke is driven by a hostility against civilization: he feels so ill at ease in our culture that he simulates archaic and even prearchaic cults in order to get to the roots of real existence. In these antediluvian places of worship he becomes the designer of the most crafty theogonic machines. The more unreal the device, the bigger its hallucinating distinctness. When I look at Luetke's pictures, I find myself confronted with a sensational archaeologic discovery; its condition seems so fabulous that I can fully detect the sophistic technology and experience the subtle odd functionalism of these ghostly machines. It is one of the main features of these devices that their appearances are of almost seductive superreality and entice me to abandon my civilizing reserves in order to experience the true existence of the discoveries, which are presented with utmost credibility. I cannot evade the suggestive power of this extraordinary artist." Prof. Rudolf Hausner, Master of Phantastic Realism
