In a city becoming more and more about its sports than its steel, its musicians than its mills, it was about time a magazine came to the city that reflected that.
LUX Magazine is about illuminating the New Pittsburgh. It's about shining the spotlight on the many talented performers and singers and dancers and actors and musicians and comedians and artists that the city needs to take note of.
A city is only as good as its dreams, and its dreams are made by artists. LUX is here to reflect that dream.
Who I'd like to meet: Artists, musicians, models, actors, writers, readers, thinkers, photographers, restaurant goers, party lovers...you get the idea!

Hand to Hand - the coast to coast collaborative collage of Rebecca Trawick and David Wallace
Over the course of two years, Rebecca and I traded collages back and forth through the mail, adding to each work as it changed hands. Throughout this process, we never met in person - I live in Pittsburgh, and Rebecca lives in Southern CA. We found that working together was a way to communicate on a purely creative level. We weren’t interested in becoming “pen pals,” but rather in seeing how our two styles could combine to create work that was not completely me, not totally her, but something new and surprising to us both. The work debuted at Moxie Dada in Pittsburgh in January 2007 and has since been shown at Phd Gallery in St. Louis and Tangent Lab in Wichita, working its way across the U.S. in much the same way the pieces themselves traveled between the two of us.
"This beautiful collection of collages holds no specific thematic intentions; there are no hidden messages to interpret. Each piece offers its own vocabulary, images for which viewers can create their own meanings. Or one can simply appreciate the image for its aesthetic value as a beautiful work of art." - Janera Soloman, Pittsburgh City Paper
