Lumas and The Skateroom present skate decks with art by Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg and Jean-Michel Basquiat for supporting youth projects of Skateistan

The works by three artists who are pioneers of the cross-media approach in art - Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg, Jean-Michel Basquiat, are used for the current charity project by Lumas and The Skateroom for collecting money for youth projects of the international organization Skateistan which runs skate parks and provides education to young people from 5 to 17 years in Afghanistan, South Africa and Cambodia. 10% of the proceeds of the art-skateboards will be donated to 'Skate & Create' projects of Skateistan. The documentary video below shows youth projects in the three countries.
