David Rabinowitch RCA (born March 6, 1943) is a Canadian visual artist who exhibits internationally and is best known for his non-representational steel constructions[1] that develop the traditions of modernist sculpture.
[2][3] New York Magazine said in 2008 that his work is related to Minimalism, but it comes from a different angle than most American examples such as that of Carl Andre or Richard Serra.
[6] An interest on his part in Romanesque art led to over twenty years of trips to France to study its monuments.
In late 2010 to early 2011, the Peter Blum Gallery exhibited Birth of Romanticism: New Works on Paper.
While Rabinowitch's art has often rippled with sublimated emotion and maculate tactility, these drawings suggest that its internal tensions have precipitated an irreparable rupture with its own past, eradicating its Platonic surface to expose a jarring, multi-leveled parallel world.
