A SPECIAL EVENING WITH DAVID DREBIN

August 28, 2023

THURSDAY, AUGUST 31ST 2023 | 6-9 PM

David Drebin is one of the most successful and highly collected multi-disciplinary artists working today. Contessa Gallery is excited to exhibit David Drebin's artwork at their Hamptons gallery. The gallery will exhibit Photographs, Lightboxes, Neon Light Installations and his latest Lenticulars where Drebin’s glamorous and mysterious muses come to life, with the power of three-dimensional imaging. His works are compilations of alluring fantasies, didactic landscapes and mysterious circumstances, all in some way or another idyllic in appearance. The scenes that the artist creates are worlds nearly utopic in juxtaposition with the viewer’s actuality. What is so fascinating about Drebin is his ability to convey the beautiful in extraordinary doses, while he simultaneously diminishes the flaws of reality.
 
Contessa Gallery will host a special evening with the artist. The gallery is proud to exhibit David Drebin's Photography, Neon Light Installations, Lightboxes and Lenticulars, highlighting his ascension as a multidisciplinary Art World Star. Drebin's artwork will certainly be a showstopper in the Hamptons.

The photographer David Drebin moved to New York and built his artistic reputation on a certain kind of image: dramatic shots of femme fatales set against glamorous urban backdrops. It’s fitting that his new show at Contessa Gallery is called “Chasing Paradise.”

A talented photographer without equal, David Drebin is above all a storyteller. His brooding and glamorous works tell tales of lust and voyeurism, as well as seduction and escape. Not afraid to be daring, Drebin also tantalizes us with subtle allusions. His sweeping cinematic images feature the majestic backdrops of such world cities as Berlin, Paris and Rio de Janeiro. These photographs pulse with a charged sensuality, using color and light to maximum effect.

The February 2011 issue of ARTnews magazine featured a 4-page article on the career and the art of David Drebin. It highlights some of his best works several of which are on view at Contessa Gallery.
