"In his recent installation piece called True North…we can see the raw strength of Lukacs. The four large portraits of these hard-nosed skinheads are as powerful a series of images as you are likely to find in any international gallery."

Art Perry, The Province,
August 19, 1991

"Few artists have understood their times better than this 27-year-old painter from Edmonton. The skill with which he creates visual metaphors of decay and destruction is unnerving. This is the age of high-tech barbarism, and Lukacs is one of its most brilliant chroniclers."

Christopher Hume, The Toronto Star,
June 30, 1989

"His [Lukacs] accomplished, visceral paintings of 80s low-life figures in highbrow, art-historical frameworks are at once pensive and disturbing, and their mix of references succeed in undermining many preconceived cultural prejudices."

Deirdre Hanna, Now,
June 29 - July 5, 1989
