David Leitner

David Leitner is an visual artist from Austria. His works are inspired by cultural diversity and have a figurative focus. Often staged and with a surreal twist, they aim to create an illogical space, referencing forgotten photographs of the past and putting them into a contemporary context. He has collaborated with brands such as Adidas, Absolut Vodka and Vans and has shown his works across Europe and Asia.
