David Lund (born Nathan David Lifschitz, October 16, 1925 – November 6, 2023) was an American artist who was associated with the abstract expressionist painters of the New York School. His landscape oils done in the 1950s are exemplary of the bold combination of form, color and texture for which this group is celebrated. Lund taught at Cooper Union, Parsons, New York University, Fashion Institute of Technology, the Metropolitan Museum, the 92nd Street Y, the National Academy School of Fine Arts, and Columbia University.
