It is pleasurable to walk in trackless forests
dimmed until the loss of senses.
There is magic in losing oneself
in the knowledge of who
you are not.

When unearthing your image
navigating along particular paths
fancy the yearned,
know who
you are.
Press Release
 

Agora Gallery. Chelsy, NY

Idith Levy's bold oil paintings range from expressive representation to abstractions, distinguished for their compelling compositions and striking palettes. Richly textured color fields and vigorous strokes of ponderous grays and greens, fierce scarlet, resplendent gold and cool whites lie in thick layers across the surfaces of Idith's canvases. The imagery in these works incorporates fragmented scenery or minimalist observations of nature, as well as the silhouetted forms of figures and unknowable visions. The variety of subject matter in Idith's work is united by her distinctive attention to the materiality of the paint itself-the powerful brushstrokes, the vehement palette knife application of medium. Idith Levy was born in Tel Aviv, Israel, where she studied history of art, literature, photography, and curatorship. She worked for many years in an art museum as director of education and guidance. Her art was featured in several exhibitions in Israel. Idith now lives and works in Orlando, Florida.
