Lucas Kröeff é um artista visual e editor brasileiro. Trabalha em uma interface livre entre inciativas independentes, instituições de arte e editoras de livros, na produção de conceitos e narrativas materializadas em objetos, livros, instalações, videos e experimentos coletivos efêmeros. Kröeff explora da relação entre história, politica, o imaginário coletivo e a construção de sua propria subjetividade, em um processo de construção de redes de troca assim como um sistemático procedimento de organização do cotidiano.
Enquanto artista gráfico, Kröeff atua ativamente dentro do campo editorial desenvolvendo proposições, capas de livros e coleções a partir de um experimento conceitual onde alfabetos se tornam uma ferramenta de desenho. Já fez capas de livros para Masha Alyokhina, Félix Guattari, Harriet Jacobs, Walter Benjamim, Franz Kafka, Fernando Pessoa, Celso Favaretto, Paul D. Escott, Baudelaire, Maquiavel, H.P. Lovecraft, Fernand Deligny, Stéphane Mallarmé e muitas outras autoras e autores. [+]
