About Cara Levine:
Cara Levine is an artist based in Los Angeles, CA. She earned a BFA from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI (2007) and an MFA from California College of the Arts in San Francisco, CA (2012). She explores themes of absence, empathy, and equity through a practice encompassing studio-based art-making, social engagement, and curatorial projects. Unifying my work is the belief: art practice is tasked to reveal and explore otherwise irreconcilable realities, both personal and collective, historic and current. She is the founder of This Is Not A Gun, a multidisciplinary project aiming to create awareness and activism through collective creative action. In 2023, she founded Outlook Is ___ Projects, an experimental art space in the storefront of her Los Angeles studio. Her work has been presented in one-person, group exhibitions, and participatory events in venues around the world such as the The Oregon Jewish Museum, Portland (2025), The Contemporary Jewish Museum, San Francisco (2023), MOCA Geffen Warehouse, Los Angeles, CA (2020); Creative Time, New York, NY (2019); The Anchorage Museum, Anchorage, AK, (2019), Tenderloin Museum, San Francisco, CA (2017); Center for Contemporary Art, Tel Aviv, Israel; Wattis Institute For Contemporary Art, San Francisco, CA (2012); and Kyoto Seika University, Kyoto, Japan (2006). Levine has participated in residency programs including Santa Fe Art Institute (2017); The Arctic Circle, International Territory of Svalbard (2017); Sedona Arts Colony, Sedona, AZ (2016); SIM Residency, Reykjavík, Iceland (2015); Anderson Ranch, Aspen, CO (2014); and Vermont Studio Center, Johnson, VT (2013). Levine is currently an associate adjunct professor at Otis College of Art and Design, a Lucas Arts Fellow at Montalvo Arts Center (2024-2027) and a Cultural Leadership Fellow at the Mandel Institute (2023-2025). Lastly, Levine has worked with the disability arts community since 2011 in roles at various progressive art studios including the Exceptional Children’s Foundation, Inglewood, CA and Creative Growth, Oakland, CA. She organized the first annual Self-Taught Artists Fair with Public Annex in Portland, OR in 2017..
