David Levy Furniture
David Levy was born in Landstuhl, Germany, in 1962. At the age of 10, his father took him to The Studio, which was owned by a family friend and accomplished photographer, Harvey Mendelson. This was the start of his life-long passion for photography. While studying communications and art history at college, he met Jerry Burchfield and Mark Chamberlain, the owners of BC Space Gallery, in Laguna Beach, California. As a lab assistant, working side by side with Jerry in the darkroom, he began to refine his technical skills, with color and black & white printing. Considered a master printer, utilizing traditional and alternative processes and the demanding Ilfochrome process, David quickly built a reputation, which has led to collaborations with numerous artists, around the world, to produce exhibition-quality prints. Influenced by classic and contemporary photographers, filmmakers and artists, his conceptual photography reflects an integral connection between environmentalism, social/political activism and mass media influence on social behavior. His recent work deals with issues of racism, perception of place in society and the influence of mass media on lifestyle. Levy’s work has been exhibited extensively in the United States and Europe and is held by numerous private and corporate collections. Commercially, he produces creative and editorial imagery for lifestyle, portraits, travel and product use. He has also produced and curated numerous exhibitions, including works by William Eggelston, Mark Chamberlain, Jerry Burchfield, Glen Perotto, Jose Vasquez, Nils Olav Boe and many other notable photographic artists. He has also served as the country manager for Getty Images, in Denmark and has curated a number of commercial exhibitions for Getty, as part of the “Copenhagen Photo Festival.”

This exhibition is a visual dance of contradictions. Whimsical and sophisticated. Stylistic and simple. Studied and carefree. That’s what emerges when you take a photojournalist by study, fashion photographer by trade and fine artist by instinct and leave him alone with his camera and a muse. Burris’ work is influenced by his early career spent working with fashion photographer Bill King and inspired by the decisive moment made known by the Henri Cartier Bresson. He defies the confines of either discipline. It is not fashion photography, which is by nature produced, but rather purely spontaneous.
Todd left the world of fashion photography after building his own career in Milan and New York to go to LA and find his niche. He embraced his fascination with flea markets and penchant for discarded items that wouldn’t ever be chosen because they were trendy but because they were interesting. Burris packed his 1979 white Pontiac station wagon with his finds. When he came upon a stage that fit the props, he called on his muses and created a visual story on the spur of a moment.
The collection of black and white images conveys a sense of effervescence and Élan. It includes photographs from Burris' time in Los Angeles as well as earlier experimental work in Milan and New York City.
Anything but superficial, the invitational image, "Paget #1" challenges the traditional symmetry of beauty. We see a dramatic close up of a woman’s face, her intense eyes framed by the stark contrast between her porcelain skin and jet black hair. The lighting is such that her face is divided by shadow, one half dark and mysterious, the other half light and classically beautiful. The effect is deeply engaging. The viewer doesn’t know when the photo was taken but you want to know more.
