Founded by award-winning Photographer Eric Berger in 1984, the LIK Academy for Photography and Design got its final Shape and Organisation with its current Director Nadja Gusenbauer.
The fascination for photography infected the native Ukrainian at a young age. The love for black and white photography and the development in her own laboratory were put in her cradle in a manner of speaking. After years as an engineer in the textile industry, Nadja Gusenbauer took the examination for the degree of Master in Photography in Austria found her vocation in photography. She manages the LIK Academy for Photo and Design in Vienna since 2011.

The English Classes are guided by Dina Lee. I’m Dina Lee, a portrait photographer, originally a Koryo-saram, born in Uzbekistan and currently based in Vienna, Austria. I’ve lived in 4 different countries where I had the chance to experience various cultures and lifestyles. I hold an MA in Intercultural Communication from the University of Verona (Italy) and a Photography Diploma from the Lik Akademie für Foto und Design (Vienna, Austria). In 2013 I discovered Sue Bryce’s workshops and was immensely inspired by her approach to the art and the business of portrait photography. A year later I opened my very own portrait studio in Vienna specializing in personal branding portraits. Alongside studio work I’ve been working on several personal projects aiming to explore cultural identity and personal legacy through portraiture. My artworks have been presented internationally, among others at the biennale Photokina Köln and at the Sotheby’s Institute of Art in New York
