"Bill Davis is one of the most interesting photographers in the world, with a growing reputation following the acquisition of his work by some notable photographic museums in the USA, Ukraine, The Czech Republic, and Spain." - Alan Sisley (Orange Regional Museum Director- Australia (deceased)).

“I consider Bill Davis to be one of America’s finest photographers. Mr. Davis’ work is astonishing: his understanding of the medium of photography is as fine as anyone I’ve encountered in my forty years as critic, curator, and collector/dealer in the visual arts and his knowledge and passion of the medium is both a delight and impressive.”

- Daniel Brown, Editor www.aeqai.com, Curator, Lifetime Achievement Award Who’s Who in America

“Looking at Davis’ photographs what strikes me most is the strong tension between the perceptual and aesthetic experience of the compositional beauty of the photographs and the cognitive recognition of what Davis considers being dangerous or even harmful for our lives. We must ask what makes these compositions beautiful, and the evident answer is that they rely on the compositional transformation of the night.”

- Zsolt Bátori (PhD), Dean - Art and Creative Industries- Budapest Metropolitan University

"Conversation becomes something beautiful when artist Bill Davis is uttering the words. Davis chooses his sentences carefully. The phrases fall from his lips like delicate whispers. When Davis speaks, the experience is both comforting and enlightening. Listening closely, there is little doubt that you are speaking to a creative person."

- Steve Ramos, Journalist (New York Magazine, Fast Company, Quartz)

“He invites us to explore our relationship with light, but it doesn’t stop there… Davis’ collection is as much about the loss of darkness as it is about other lost places – nature, values, beliefs, mystery, and wonder.”

- Dr Sibylle Frey, BSc, MSc

---------------------------------------------------

“Bill Davis has a profound understanding of light. At first glance, the sense of atmospheric luminosity in Davis’ photography is visually seductive.”

- Garin Horner, Author of The Photography Teacher’s Handbook, Adrian College Professor of Art

---------------------------------------------------

“Bill Davis introduces us to the richness of the world through shapes and forms. Sheerness of his dimensional lines bares a resemblance to the photographic purism of Arnold Newman.” - Michal Janata, Atelier Magazine

---------------------------------------------------

“The quality and quantity of Bill Davis’s production continues to build in momentum and importance. Davis’s contributions to the practice are substantial and competent. As a founding member of Clean Air Coalition of Western New York, I was impressed with Professor Davis’s knowledge and communication skills as an artist and teacher to passionately advocate for social and environmental change in his latest project No Dark in Sight. From this portfolio I published “Skyglow I- Site 0340..."

- Professor Robert Hirsch, Director of Light Research (CoFounder of CEPA)
