David Booker (born 1954) is an Australian sculptor.

Biography

David Booker was born in Australia in 1954. He was educated in Sydney, Australia and Hobart, Tasmania.[1] His first solo exhibition was in 1983, in the main foyer, central Railway Station, Sydney. Since then, he has continued to show his sculptures in collective and solo exhibitions in Italian towns of art and since 1989 he lives and works in his house-workshop in Umbria, Italy.

Artistic career

David Booker's works consist of monumental sculptures and original pencil drawings. His first solo exhibition was in 1983, in the main foyer, Central railway station, Sydney. Since then, he has continued to show his sculptures in collective and solo exhibitions, focusing on the integration of his themes in special architectural urban settings in Italian cities of art and in contemporary buildings.[1]

He also has been exhibiting pencil drawings from that time. The still-life pencil drawings on paper are drawings of boxes and used packaging he collects from recycled rubbish. These found objects are grouped together in different positions before they are drawn.[2]
