Denmark, the Neitherlands and Germany. In the USA David's works have been shown at the
Slusser Gallery at the University of Michigan, The College of Staten Island Art Gallery in
New York City and Cade gallery in Royal Oak Michigan.
"I strive to create in wood, paper folds or aluminum three dimensional
constructions that are then painted to cast reflections and shadows over the visual
landscape. This personalized expression of geometric art combines both painting and
sculpture. The decision to paint the constructions comes from an interest in how light
reflections plays upon form and coloring. The painted shapes change as you move around the
artwork...like a sculpture".
  
Reflections on my Artwork: Art strives for form and hopes for the
illusion of beauty. Art isn't just about making things, it's about developing ideas, which
can inspire beyond mere aesthetics, as light gets filtered, then fixed, into one's brain
sensors. The fact that our eye can perceive so many different kinds of things is something
that I get a lot of inspiration from as I seek the aesthetic elements present in space,
light and mind. The space of the imagination, and creativity of form, just needs the touch
of an artist to inspire the viewer.
I attempt to make something that engages with people even though it's quite static on a
wall. They have to visually navigate it from a variety of angles to fully appreciate it .
They respond to my art viscerally, because the level of representation is just light and
the contrasting lines ineracting with each other. I get the sense that a lot of people
really enjoy the experiences they've had in viewing my constructive art forms and firmly
believe that creating art invites the viewer into the art object itself, opening them up
to the larger ideas invoked by the piece.
David Rubello gets motivated by Relief Art forms: It was
Through my desire to achieve actual space relationships that I came to three-dimensional
constructure painting in 1980. The relief form, by it's very nature, allows the viewer to
experience the artist's work from different vantage points. Light falling on the form may
vary allowing the painted Constructure a renewal aspect relating to form and color.
Becoming aware of the works of Charles Biederman and Eli Bornstein has been instrumental
in motivating my Art and Photography in this constructive relief direction. Check out my
Art Gallery.
