‘Snow White” by David Scheinmann, England, 2010 Edition 1/7 '+ 2 AP'

David Scheinmann is an emerging British photographic artist. Scheinmann has evolved from an award-winning, creative and cutting edge commercial photographer of the 1980s and 1990s into an artist whose work explores issues of cultural identity and popular iconography. A solo exhibition of Scheinmann’s work, curated by Centro Andaluz de la Fotografía, toured in Spain and his work was showcased at Royal Dublin Society Collective Contemporary Art in 2010 and has hung in the National Portrait Gallery in London. His work looks at comic book heroes, pop art, adult entertainers and advertising. Inspired by the recent visual explosion in Contemporary Chinese and Asian art, Scheinmann’s series on Asian Movie Icons is richly rendered in mixed media pigment and silkscreen hybrid prints and was first shown at Art Basel's Hong Kong Art Fair in 2012.
