Local Mid-City phtographer and artist David Kramer is a true Renaissance man.
An archetypal beat poet (or as he more aptly puts it, “radio artist”), a classic southern California surfer dude (though he’s from the Midwest) and a high tech geek, David dares to mix and match the commercial world of photography with  a fine art sensibility. He blends a lo-hi tech intelligence with passion, a unique aesthetic, curiosity about everything and appreciation for the absurd.  In his day job Kramer photographs people, architecture or product and leaves no stone unturned when allowing photography and art to overlap. He is constantly emphasizing that “all commercial art should be fine art”.  Easy to do if you are Kramer.

David creates websites, shoots guerilla-style music videos and is allied with The Los Angeles Creative Club, a networking salon for folks in the advertising industry.  While juggling the world of commerce, he also gives back to the community by holding workshops for children and adults at his studio, located at the western edge of Washington Boulevard in Mid-City.

Join him this December at the Group photography show co-curated with this author.
