Rut Blees Luxemburg is a German photographer, she is 52 and studied at the London College of Communication. She is now a Tutor at the Royal College of Art.

Blees Luxemburg investigates the urban landscape and its effect on the human condition. She does a lot of large-scale photographic prints. Majority of her shoots are done at night, using long exposures, allowing her to capture the lights of the city. Her images have an atmospheric tone within them.

Blees Luxemburg was originally studying Political science in Germany, however moved to London to study photography at the London College of Communication and then University of Westminster.

She has exhibited internationally and her work is in major collections across Europe. Her new work is more dependent on nature, meaning she waits for rain or certain tides. This breaks away from the world of concrete and steel that creates the character in London.
