Then, in 1969, he put down his brushes and pursued photography in the footsteps of Brett Weston and Ansel Adams around Carmel and Big Sur, California. Davo first came to Hawaii in 1973 and toured the South Pacific Islands, living what he calls an "Au Gauguinesque style of life and painting."

Produktbeschreibung
Born in Los Angeles, Davo found early in his career and studies that he was strongly influenced by renowned artists including Van Gogh, Gauguin, and Chagall. Then, in 1969, he put down his brushes and pursued photography in the footsteps of Brett Weston and Ansel Adams around Carmel and Big Sur, California. Davo first came to Hawaii in 1973 and toured the South Pacific Islands, living what he calls an "Au Gauguinesque style of life and painting." Later, he spent time in New York's Soho district, where he met many artists as well as people in the international art scene, not the least of all Andy Warhol. It was at "The Factory", Warhol's studio, and meeting and working with Warhol that Davo decided Pop-Art was a style more suited to his personality and life style. He describes his work as being Neo-Pop expressionism, and his favorite subjects are modern icons, including Marilyn Monroe, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and Audrey Hepburn. His primary technique is serigraphy, but he also creates layered assemblages and collages, with an unmistakable talent for the juxtaposition of images, color, and materials as diverse as wood, plastic, metal, and glass along with, of course, paint. Additionally, the employment of phosphorescence plays a part in the display of his multi-dimensional work. As one critic has said of his work, "His eccentric meandering through subjects, styles, mediums, formats, and sizes maintains a unique and graceful balance."
