Ingeborg Lüscher (born in 1936 in Freiberg, Saxony) is a German-Swiss artist whose practice spans painting, photography, installation, and video, with a marked attention to the psychological and conceptual dimensions of the image. Initially trained as an actress, she turned to the visual arts in the late 1960s in Ticino and became known in particular for her photographic documentation of the hermit Armand Schulthess, presented at documenta 5 (1972) in the context of “individual mythologies.”
