Luba Lukova's Designing Justice exhibition continues its tour with an opening at The Thermos Foundation in Taipei, Taiwan. The Foundation is the cultural arm of the legendary Thermos brand and houses a treasured collection of ancient Chinese sculpture and art.
Lukova's work is displayed in all four galleries of Studio 94, a space dedicated to contemporary art, performance, and cultural dialogue.
An artist and designer, Luba Lukova creates images that transcend language, cultures, and politics. Passionate and bold, her messages address essential themes of humanity and injustice worldwide and help viewers develop empathetic understanding for social and cultural issues through indelible metaphors and an economy of line, color, and text.
