Biography |
While
attending the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, David Kliger benefited
from the freedom of combining drawing and painting with computer animation
courses. Spending his days in the museum, he began to discover he had
the eye of a painter, yet was attracted to the computer as an art medium.
To harmonize his creative influences, ideas and skills, Kliger began creating
digital montages from photographs from which he creates archival prints;
he has developed and explored this method of working since 1999. Kliger
came a long way from his introduction to the arts at Northern Virginia
Community College (while earning a marketing degree), to accomplishing
his BFA in Chicago. He returned to the east coast and settled in metropolitan
Washington, D.C.
For more than 4 years, Kliger was an active member of Touchstone Gallery,
a thirty-member arts community in the city. Here, he became more involved
in photography. In fact, he approaches each figurative digital montage
as if he is “creating a drawing with photographic elements”.
Combining his technical and visual background, Kliger currently operates
a business called Image Transformation Services through which he provides
on-sight high-end retouching services throughout New York.
