David Kirshner

Profile/CV

For the last few years my work has been influenced by the philosophical/literary movement Deconstruction, and in particular by the writings of Jacques Derrida and Francois Lyotard. I work in a variety of media - most of my works are 'constructions' of one kind or another. Recently my work has been involved with signs and symbols which has incorporated fluorescent and halogen lighting. I am also producing a series of large format silk screened books on these subjects. In addition to my visual work I also lecture on Contemporary Art and its philosophical background.
