"The high-glamor photographic world of David Drebin is filled with equal parts sex appeal, intrigue, fantasy, and danger. There’s a cinematic quality to his stylish images, as though the viewer has stumbled upon a moment caught at the height of the action. The viewer is a voyeur, lured in by Drebin’s femme fatales, watching events occur, but removed from them. It is the slick, saturated beauty of the photographs—honed by a successful career of shooting for luxury brands and fashion magazines—that initially captivates, but layers of the image are discovered over time: hints of humor, melancholy, and underlying drama."

In a unique manner, David Drebin’s work combines voyeuristic and

psychological viewpoints. He offers the viewer a dramatic insight into

emotions and experiences which many of us have doubtlessly felt at

some point of our lives.

After graduating from Parsons School of Design in New York

City in 1996, David Drebin rapidly made a name for himself as an

internationally renowned photographer creating images of movie

stars,sports personalities and various entertainers and subsequently was

commissioned for countless high profile advertising campaigns around

the world.

Drebin’s photographs are epic, dramatic and, above all, cinematic and

have been collected around the world.

In a unique and opulent way, Drebin stages femme fatales against the

gigantic backdrops of cities such as Hong Kong, New York, and Paris.

The panorama of the big cities, which, due to their format, are a tribute

to cinema, serve as cinematic settings. With their impressive skyscrapers,

they provide the viewer with a nearly infinite surface for the imagination.

The distinctive tension and depth in his pictures arise from the free

combination of such differing topics as humor and sex, melancholy and

sex, and melancholy and humour.
