Ludwig Zeller was a Chilean poet and visual artist associated with the surrealism movement. He was born in 1927 in Río Loa in the northern Chilean region of Calama. From 1952-1968, he was the curator and director of the Ministry of Education Art Gallery in Chile. In 1971, he moved to Toronto with his family where he continued his career as a surreal collagist and poet.
