After training as a lithographer, Klaus Moritz attended the University of Graphics and Book Art in Leipzig and the University of Fine Arts in Berlin. He worked as a freelance artist in Leipzig from 1952 to 1959, during which time he created large-format landscapes and portraits on behalf of the Minister for Foreign Affairs of the GDR Lothar Bolz.
In 1959 Moritz moved to the Federal Republic of Germany and worked as a lithographer and graphic artist for the printing and pharmaceutical industries. In 1967 he founded the Klettenberg press and set up a lithography workshop in Cologne.
In 1970 he created the lithograph series ‘London Mix’ and in 1971, after a trip to England and Ireland, the lithograph cycle ‘Paul Greene’, for which he was honoured with the jury prize at the 1st Vienna Graphic Biennale.
He painted his first lighthouse picture in 1975. Up to 1993 Moritz exhibited in 150 group and solo exhibitions and in 2010 donated his graphic work to the Städtisches Museum Aschersleben.
