Brief Biography & Artistic Journey
Sala Lieber: “I paint lush visual worlds imbued with a dash of symbolism and irony. My inspiration is drawn from the Baroque and Rococo periods, reworking their classical motifs into contemporary narratives that juxtapose joie de vivre with the eroticism of transience.”
1980 | Born in Budapest, Hungary
Education & Early Milestones
1999 – 2001 | Dresden Academy of Fine Arts, Diploma in Painting under Prof. Elke Hopfe, Prof. Max Uhlig, and Prof. Siegfried Klotz
2001 – 2006 | Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, Diploma in Painting under Prof. Jörg Immendorff, Prof. G. Merz, and Prof. Herbert Brandl
2005 | Awarded the Meisterschülerin distinction by Prof. Herbert Brandl; graduated with an Academy Diploma
2007 | Guest student in Prof. Karin Kneffel’s painting class at the University of the Arts Bremen
2019 | Solo exhibition sponsored by the Britta and Ulrich Findeisen Foundation at the Foundation for Art and Architecture, Cologne
Critical Acclaim
“In Sala Lieber’s work—her drawings, her screen prints, and her paintings—it is not the ‘sweet’ surface of decorative, arabesque forms and colors that matters, but the development of a new visual language rooted in the old-masterful techniques of the Rococo.”
– Doris Pieper, Die Glocke, 30 March 2014

Our Mission and Actions
At THE ART HUB, our mission is initially focused on addressing a profound imbalance within the art world, specifically catering to women artists. In the current landscape, a mere 5% to 15% of artworks traded at auctions are created by women, starkly contrasted by the overwhelming 85% to 95% of works by male artists. This disparity is not only confined to auctions but is also prevalent in exhibitions, where male-created art significantly overshadows that of their female counterparts.
By concentrating our efforts on female artists, THE ART HUB aims to counteract this imbalance and champion women within the art community. This initiative is designed to amplify the visibility of women artists, making their creations more accessible to a wider audience, and ultimately striving for a more balanced representation of genders within art auctions and exhibitions. By prioritizing women in art, our platform boldly advocates for equality and diversity within the art sector, signaling a commitment to reshaping and enriching the cultural landscape.
