David Lubarsky

With over four decades of experience, native New Yorker David Lubarsky has been working as an independent assignment photographer creating inspired images of accomplished professionals & their working environments for the editorial, media, corporate & fine art markets.

His work has been published in numerous consumer & trade publications, corporate annual reports, websites & social media platforms.

David’s ongoing photo essay “In Transit” depicting the urban commuting cultural landscape has been widely exhibited in the New York metropolitan area.

His first solo exhibit was funded by a grant from MTA/Arts for Transit Lightbox Series at Grand Central Terminal, followed by a traveling solo exhibition entitled “Mobility Matters” commissioned by MetroPool Inc. and the New York + Connecticut Department of Transportations.

Five of these images have been part of the permanent collection of the Museum of the City of New York since 1983.

David holds a BFA in photography from the School of Visual Arts and a AAS in photography from Fashion Institute of Technology, studied with renowned photographers Julio Mitchel, Todd Watts, Sid Kaplan & Irving Schild.

“Motivated by the mid-century social documentary movement in photography, my perpetual interest in pursuing the urban cultural landscape provides a loose emotional structure & visual canvas to celebrate the crossroads of the human experience.

-Although the tools of photography continue to evolve with new technologies, my visual objective remains the same; with each decisive moment, I deactivate the clock & preserve my distinct perception of time & space.”
