Nicole Lubbers - Strike a pose

Nicole Lubbers is a Dutch visual artist from the eastern part of the country. Her work is marked by an innovative and idiosyncratic approach to abstract art, where painting, relief, and sculptural elements come together. With rich colors, layered structures, and a variety of materials, she creates powerful works around themes such as resilience, movement, strength, and transformation.

Her international career has developed strongly in recent years. Lubbers was named Artist of the Year 2024 at the Belgrade Biennale, received the Institutional Award of the Municipality of Montecosaro, and placed second at the World Art Awards as Most Innovative Artist 2024. She was also included among the 100 best female artists in the world and recognized as Master in Art.

Internationally her work has been shown and planned for exhibitions in, among others, New York, Venice, Florence, Belgrade, Belgium, China, and Montecosaro, in addition to exhibitions in Dutch galleries.

A notable highlight is Beyond the Surface, a solo exhibition on Times Square in New York. In addition, Nicole, together with artist Michael Lam, presents the exhibition Harmony in Motion: Two Artists, One Vision. Here Lam’s flowing Single Stroke Painting and Lubbers’ expressive, layered structures meet. The color purple forms the connecting thread between two different artistic languages and symbolizes creativity, spirituality, and transformation.

Nicole Lubbers’s work is more than decoration. Her compositions invite reflection on perseverance, growth, and overcoming challenges. Each work makes a powerful and tangible statement that gives a space character, energy, and individuality.

In addition to her work as a visual artist, Nicole Lubbers is also known as a doll maker. Her artworks are delivered with a certificate of authenticity.
