Luba Lukova was born in Bulgaria and graduated from the Academy of fine arts in Sofia Bulgaria in 1986. Upon visiting New York in 1991 Lukova decided to stay in the united states and have permanent residence in New York, she was hired by the New York Times Book Review. Lukova is best known for her illustrations and design work.
I chose Luba Lukova to discuss because I was drawn to how simplistic nature of Lukova's illustrations. The artist uses blocky shapes, very minimal thin lines and a basic color scheme that sets up the mood for the image. The illustrations and the content makes the viewer take a second look to see the full message conveyed. I really enjoy the surreal nature of the images.
