David Lefkowitz

David Lefkowitz is an artist who moves about in a large visual arena. He seeks inspiration from art history, travel and the idiosyncrasies of daily life. He is not limited to traditional art materials in the work he creates, often recycling cardboard, wood scraps and even Styrofoam. Mostly considered a painter, he frequently crosses over into sculpture either in relief or, occasionally, freestanding objects that often become part of an installaion. His sense of humor and regard for the environment are almost always present in his multi-dimensional repertoire.

David Lefkowitz is a graduate of the University of Illinois, Chicage (MFA) and Carlton College in Northfield, Minnesota. He has exhibitied his work extensively throughout the region including one-person exhibitions at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, the Nash Gallery at the Unversity of Minnesota, and ARC Gallery in Chicago. He has been the recipient of several awards including Minnesota State Arts Board, McKnight Foundation Fellowships and Bush Artist Fellowship.
