Limited Editions, endless inspiration

Unlike the traditional art market, where editions may be limited to just a few pieces, our editions range from 75 to 150, making exceptional art attainable. Each piece is sourced by our curators who explore international exhibitions and art fairs to find artworks that inspire and captivate.

Two collectors disrupt an industry

Founded by Marc Ullrich and Stefanie Harig in 2004 — the aim of LUMAS art editions was to close the gap between the very high-priced unique pieces of traditional galleries and the high-circulation prints of the museum stores.

With a mission to democratize art, we've reshaped the art market landscape, supported by 250 passionate artists and a vibrant community of over 300,000+ enthusiasts and collectors worldwide.

PALM TREES PALM SPRINGS

Stefanie Schneider

Whether it’s the setting, the subject or the artistic process: Stefanie Schneider values authentic above staged results, which is realized by her in various ways: From rolls of film that mutated chemically over time to candid, spontaneous scenes. Perfect landscapes caught on imperfect film, an actress caught behind the scenes — her artworks present a shimmering interplay of contrasts.

Werner Pawlok: CHINOS HOUSE I
CHINOS HOUSE I

Werner Pawlok

The impressive work of self-taught artist Werner Pawlok is driven by passion, sensuality and diversity — just like the Cuban capital he captures in his photographs. The vibrant Caribbean metropolis bursts with life, hides countless secrets and bears traces of centuries of history. Werner Pawlok masters the art of capturing the spirit of breathtaking places from Havana to Venice. He finds a way to break down the essence of things and bringing them back to life within his art.

In the studio with Beatrice Hug

Beatrice Hug

Beatrice Hug’s abstract photographs have entirely “real” origins. They are coloured glasses and liquids arranged as spatial still lifes: installations with labyrinthine and translucent textures. The artist captures the interplay between the light and the particularly thrilling waves of colour that take form in the sun’s rays. With a shallow depth of field and varied exposure times, she creates images reminiscent of abstract and expressionistic paintings.

LA VIE EN ROSE

Isabelle Menin

It is immediately apparent that Isabelle Menin’s artistic background is in painting. Her bright colours and invigorating, fanciful manipulation of texture and materiality have enthralled the art community. Menin’s works are like vortexes, pulling viewers in deeper and deeper.
