David Salle is an American painter and leading contemporary figurative artist. His work first came to public attention in New York in the early 1980s. Salle’s paintings comprised what appeared to be randomly juxtaposed images. His subject matter tended toward the popular, the gratuitous, and the pornographic, and was combined in ways that appeared deliberately incomprehensible.

Salle and his contemporaries, termed postmodern, achieved a succès de scandale with their work. He also turned his hand to set and costume design, photography, and directing mainstream cinema.
