Dean Chamberlain is the father of light painting photography and has been capturing photographs since 1967. It was his passion for photography that led him to the Rochester Institute of Technology in 1974 to pursue a fine art degree. During Dean’s time at Rochester in 1977 he discovered light painting photography. Dean was the first person to coin the term “Light Painting” for his open shutter long exposure photographic technique. He has worked with his unique art form ever since in his various works. Dean has created stunning portraits of well known individuals such as David Bowie, Paul McCartney and with Timothy Leary. He has also directed numerous music videos. Chamberlain’s work has appeared in publications such as Esquire, Vanity Fair and the Washington Post. He has received an MTV breakthrough award for directing music videos for Arcadia (Missing), Paul McCartney (This One) and Duran Duran (All She Wants Is).
This is an extremely rare original piece that was given to me by a known musician and Dean himself gave it to them. I can share the specifics of that in the event of a sale but would like to keep that private out of respect. Of course the absolutely breathtakingly vivid use of color and light with a glossy finish shows why he is who he is. The piece is a depiction of Buddha in a light adorned temple. It is on a sturdy metal backing framed on wood. Definitely a great piece with a great story. less
