Board of Directors

LIPA's Board of Directors is comprised of artists and human rights activists from Europe and the United States. The full board meets three times a year, and the gallery’s director is in weekly contact with the Executive Committee. Because of the nature of our mission, some of our board members live overseas and regular contact is facilitated via fax and e-mail. Programming and operational decisions are made by the gallery's director. Long-range planning, including fundraising activities, are the responsibility of the Executive Committee.
