    AUBREY LEVINTHAL

    Lives and works in Philadelphia, PA.

     

    Aubrey Levinthal (b. 1986, Philadelphia, PA) received an MFA from the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts (PAFA), Philadelphia, PA and a BA from The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA. She is a three-time recipient of an Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation Grant and in 2017 was awarded a residency at Ballinglen Arts Foundation, North County Mayo, Republic of Ireland. Recent group exhibitions include Anna Zorina Gallery, NY; Heaven Gallery, Chicago; Taymour Grahne Projects, London; and Monya Rowe Gallery, NY. Levinthal’s work is included in an upcoming group exhibition at the Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA), Boston in 2022. The artist is represented by Monya Rowe Gallery, NY.



    • Aubrey’s melancholic depictions of strange interiors focus on the home and inanimate objects in relation to the self, a topic that the artist has been developing since last March, when the first lockdown started. The shared experience of staying inside, of feeling isolated and sometimes vulnerable, of time passing slowly and of noticing our domestic environment more and more is at the centre of this new body of work.

    • ‘Walls which once acted as barriers suddenly feel porous. Neighbours constantly home in the apartments across the street, phone meetings with unmade beds in the background. The nightstand, a casual place for personal things, becomes a character, a fixture, with undue importance. Or maybe that unplanned space which has been so hidden in the past is where the real important stuff lives? I’ve suspected that before'.

      - Aubrey Levinthal

    • For Aubrey, the bedroom - previously the most intimate space - quickly started to feel visible to the outside world. These paintings are an ode to the ordinary interiors and objects that have taken on dizzying and distorted meanings in the upside-down world we find ourselves in during these times.
