"...his style is a combination of graffiti, collage, portrait, and classical realistic skill with bold graphic elements. As you can see by the release of his products, he has combined many different forces to create his own, distinctive style.
David's work has shown at many galleries in San Francisco such as 111 MINNA GALLERY, BUCHEON gallery, CULTURE CACHE gallery, LEVI'S as well as other places in the US and also in South Korea. He has self-published a number of art books- God made dirt, and dirt don't hurt, 4 WORDS, DIRT- and some of his books are distributed by Gingko Press and 2nd round productions to Europe and Asia. He's been teaching figurative art at the Academy of Art in SF Francisco since 1998."

Join us for the opening reception November 19, 7-10pm to check out the new art, sip on cocktails and groove to tunes of DJ Romanowski.
About the artist: David Choong Lee is a contemporary abstract artist born and raised in Seoul Korea, based in the San Francisco Bay Area since 1993. As a traditionally taught painter in classical realism, David's style has evolved over many years of extensive exploration. His works are now influenced by natural order, elements of physics and mechanics. San Francisco and the artists of the area, David claims to be his greatest inspiration. His work is driven by collaborating with other artists, especially within The Furtherrr Collective, a team of artist friends he's been working with since the early 2000s.
