Breathtakingly Beautiful: Heaven on Earth - David Drebin's Chasing Paradise Blends Art, Fantasy, and Inner Peace in New Photo Book

Canadian photographer David Drebin has released a new photo book titled Chasing Paradise. Published by teNeues, the collection features over 50 vibrant works, some never seen before, across 200 pages. The book, priced at €79.90, explores his quest for earthly beauty and inner tranquillity.

Drebin first gained recognition in the 1990s as a commercial and fashion photographer. His striking images have since appeared in leading magazines like Elle, GQ, Rolling Stone, and Vanity Fair. Over time, his work transitioned into fine art, earning spots in prestigious galleries and major exhibitions worldwide.

The Chasing Paradise series includes dreamlike scenes, from a mermaid washed ashore to sweeping cityscapes. Notable pieces like I Left My Heart in San Francisco, Romeo & Juliet, and Kiss in Paris have been showcased at venues such as the Kunstsammlung der DZ Bank in Frankfurt and the Opera Gallery in multiple cities. Despite his global shoots, Drebin describes his true paradise as inner peace rather than external locations.

The new book and exhibition continue his signature style—bold colours, cinematic compositions, and a touch of fantasy. His photographs often blur the line between reality and fairy tale, captivating viewers with their vivid storytelling.

The Chasing Paradise collection is now available for purchase, with the exhibition set to join Drebin's other works in galleries. His latest series reinforces his reputation for blending high fashion with fine art. The book's release marks another milestone in a career spanning decades.
