“Arik Levy is a truly multi-disciplinary creative professional. He is a visual artist, technician, photographer, designer, and has created video art as well! Levy studied industrial design in Switzerland and worked in the field of set design for opera. Besides his art practices, Levy is known for his furniture and light designs, and hi–tech clothing lines and accessories.
Levy recently unveiled a large-scale sculpture at the new campus of Museum of Art & Photography (MAP) in Bangalore, India. He created his iconic ‘Rock pieces’, made in Corten steel using a special process to treat the surface and the rusted look. At the launch event of the art museum, Levy had a freewheeling conversation with Abhishek Poddar, the founder and director of MAP. They reminisce the genesis of their first meeting and how that culminated in a commission for the museum.”
