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. While in Canada, Zeller and his wife, artist Susana Wald, established Oasis Publications, Canada’s only surrealist publishing house. In 1993, Zeller and Wald re-located to Oaxaca where they resided until Zeller's death in 2019.
