ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER
Member: The Atlanta Photographic Society
David Swerdlow was born in Brooklyn, New York. He has had a life-long interest in photography and studied in a technical commercial photography program during high school. He then attended the University of California and Harvard Medical School. David has traveled extensively and has always tried to capture the essence of the people and places he has visited through his photographs. David lives with his wife and two daughters in Atlanta, Georgia. The family spends part of every summer in Italy.
Over the past two years, David has transitioned from film to digital photography. He enjoys shooting landscapes and nature, especially birds, flowers and insects. His photographs have been published in Petersen’s Photographic and the New England Journal of Medicine. His work has been shown in galleries in Long Island, New York, San Francisco, Atlanta, and Italy. Over the past year in Atlanta and Italy, David has had several exhibitions featuring his Images of Tuscany. Two exhibitions are planned in Tuscany in 2007.
David’s photographs are largely representational. He seeks to convey a feeling of serenity through his subjects and presentation. For his gallery exhibitions he and his wife, Lyn Finelli, present the photographs in specially-designed decorative frames that enhance the image and give a finished custom-framed appearance to the work. This beautifully-designed art work will remind you of the beauty of nature and Tuscany every day. In addition photographs can be printed and stretched on canvas to create a true painting-like feel. All photographs are available for purchase as prints or framed and all matting and framing materials are acid free.
