Introducing David Scott Leibowitz
Leibowitz’s involvement with mobile digital art goes way beyond creating art using the latest tools. In June of 2009, he co-developed an iPhone app, “iCreated”, which is dedicated to artwork made on these iDevices and to creating a visual correlation between art and creative apps.
This put him in touch with many of the artists using iPhones, app developers and the many places on the web where these types congregate. Making art on the iPhone or iPad and joining dedicated groups on Flickr, a photo-sharing social network, put him in the middle of an incredibly supportive and proactive international community.
In July of 2009 he began writing a book about art created on iPhones and iPads and now, this finished book, Mobile Digital Art, published by Focal Press, features the work of 70 international artists and will be published in the Spring of 2013.
In the Spring of 2010, Leibowitz and six others co-founded The International Association
of Mobile Digital Artists, or iAMDA, an organization dedicated to this new medium.
