LUKE CHUEH Born in Philadelphia, but raised in Fresno, Luke Chueh's (pronounced CHU) formal art education begins and ends at Cal Poly San Luis Obipso where he earned a BS in Graphic Design. Before graduating, he was employed by the Ernie Ball Company, working in-house as designer/illustrator. While there Chueh was resposible for creating several award winning designs and was featured in the prestigious design annuals of Communication Arts and Print Magazine. At the same time, he also produced, designed, edited and published a 'zine dedicated to the "Intelligent Dance Music (IDM)" genre entitled "E.X.P.". In 2003, Chueh moved to Los Angeles to further pursue a career in design. But due to a lack of employment opportunities he resorted to painting to keep busy. He got his start when Los Angeles' "premiere underground art show", Cannibal Flower, invited him to show at their monthly events. Since then Chueh has quickly worked his way up the ranks of the LA art scene, establishing himself as an artist not to be ignored. Employing minimal color schemes, simple animal characters, and a seemingly endless list of ill-fated situations, Chueh stylistically balances cute with brute, walking the fine line between tragedy and comedy.
