Born in Leipzig, Germany, Susanne Kühn currently lives and works in Freiburg. She studied painting and printmaking at the Academy of Fine Arts in Leipzig, as well as at the School of Visual Arts and Hunter College in New York, and was awarded the Radcliffe Fellowship from the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University. Currently, she teaches at the Academy of Fine Arts in Nuremberg. Known for her unique fusion of realism, surrealism, and abstraction, Kühn’s works are dominated by exaggerated plants and fantastical flora juxtaposed with architectural or abstract geometric forms. Her art subtly balances humor with serious themes, exploring the tension between nature and constructed spaces. Her work is included in permanent collections including the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art (USA), Museum Frieder Burda (Germany), Zabludowicz Art Trust (UK), Schwartz Art Collection of Harvard University (USA), UBS Art Collection, and Deutschen Bundesbank...etc.
