Levine's other notable works include Private Moment (2015), part of Creative Time's Drifting in Daylight: Art in Central Park, for which he staged iconic movie scenes that take place in Central Park with live actors in their original locations in the park and Actors at Work (2006), in which Levine filed Actor's Equity contracts for union actors to work at their day jobs, legally converting this workplace into a theater and each job into a performance. After five years as a professional theater director in New York (Atlantic Theater, Vineyard Theater, Sundance Theater Lab, New Dramatists Director-in-Residence), Levine began creating work that combined the psychological realism of Method acting with the formal concerns of conceptual art.Īfter receiving his 2016 Grants to Artists award, Levine created Sepulchral City (2016) for the exhibition That Time at the Gerðarsafn Kópavogur Art Museum, Kópavogur, Iceland, in which two actors wandered the city performing the Brussels and London segments of Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness as personal monologues. David Levine is an artist and writer who creates performance work video, photographic, and installation work and written pieces.
