An accomplished painter, David’s teasingly hermetic works have been widely exhibited from Jersey to Jerusalem. As a recipient of a Surdna Foundation Arts Teacher Fellowship, David has spent the better part of 2005 obsessively drawing the figure, hoping to acquire an appointed sureness he can ultimately share with his students. A writer as well as an artist, he is currently working on an evaluation of the life and influence of the iconoclastic French artist Currado Malaspina. In addition to LACHSA, he is currently on the faculty of The Ryman Program for Young Artists, The Brentwood Art Center, The California State Summer School of the Arts at CalArts, The Ragan Academy and the education department of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. |
