Lucinda B. Luvaas (nee Reiss) was born in New York City on March 19th, 1947. Active in the arts from a young age, Luvaas spent her childhood and teens building sets and acting in theater productions in the summer. While in her twenties she traveled abroad and lived in the Middle East, where she worked on a kibbutz in Jerusalem. It was there that she met and married her husband, the novelist William Luvaas, in 1972. It was on their honeymoon that she began creating reverse glass paintings using a technique she learned from seamen on the Klek, a Yugoslav freighter bound for Europe. The couple lived in Europe for two years, where she devoted almost every day to exploring visual art in museums and galleries. In 1975 she moved back to NYC and worked as a full time muralist, studying art at NYU, the New School for Social Research, and the Art Students League. Her first solo exhibition was in the East Village in 1980. Her murals were featured on “Good Morning America,” as well as CBS German TV and PBS/NYC. In 1981 she studied at the New York Studio School and became the director of the Steering Committee of Artists for Nuclear Disarmament, working with twenty other artists on murals about nuclear weapons and war. These works were commissioned by the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, and two more were created for the June 12th March in 1982. She became an arts educator for the Teachers/Writers Collaborative from 1984 to 1989, then moved to California to become an instructor at both the University of California and the National University in San Diego. During this period she also began to experiment with film, creating works that merged multiple mediums and forms of presentation/consumption. She was the Director and Curator of San Jacinto College’s Fine Art Gallery for nine years, and by the early 2000s she was having multiple solo exhibitions around the country on a yearly basis. Luvaas lived in Alaska for two years while studying landscapes before returning permanently to the Continental United States, settling in Los Angeles. She continues to create new work and is represented by Walter Wickiser Gallery and ArtSpace Warehouse, Los Angeles, with her video art exclusively represented by Salamatina Gallery.
