David Benjamin Sherry

David Benjamin Sherry (born January 14, 1981) is an American photographer living and working in New York City. After graduating from the Rhode Island School of Design, Sherry earned his MFA in Photography from Yale[1] in 2007. In recent years, he has exhibited at Sikkema Jenkins & Co., Galerie Lisa Ruyter, Vienna; Goff + Rosenthal, Berlin; Andre Schlechtriem Contemporary, Berlin; Andrew Kreps, New York; Mitchell-Innes & Nash, New York; Team Gallery, New York; and China Art Objects, Los Angeles. He has also worked commercially, doing commissions for I-D, Dazed and Confused, Japanese Vogue, Another Man and 032C, among others.

Sherry's work comprises portraits, landscapes, still lives, abstractions, and camera-less photographs, often portraying vivid fantastical compositions in hypersaturated colors. Sherry's prints require extensive research and experimentation, both on-site and in the dark room. His practice is based in analog photography using pre-digital darkroom techniques.
