BIOGRAPHY

Julia Ukrainian-born sculptor, Julia Levitina, creates powerful and elegant sculptures in bronze that aim to capture the extraordinary in the ordinary. Levitina personally attends to her entire craft process, from clay to bronze, including metal casting and finishing, in her studio, which is unique as many sculptors outsource these processes to foundries.

Julia’s work has been exhibited around the world and can be found in public and private collections in the US and in Europe, including La Salle University Art Museum and Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in PA, Thomas More Law Center in Ann Arbor, Flanders House in New York City, Jewish Museum in Budapest and Van Mieghem Museum and City Hall in Antwerp, among others, with her latest public bronze installation located on Georgetown University campus in Washington, D.C.

Julia Levitina is a recipient of numerous grants and awards, including several from the National Sculpture Society, among them the prestigious Alex J. Ettl Grant and the Gloria Medal for the Meritorious Body of Work, and Exhibition and Foundry Prizes from Foundation Taylor in Paris, France.

Levitina has taught and demonstrated around the world. Her residencies, workshops and classes include Fleisher Art Memorial, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Florence Academy of the Fine Arts and Fonderia Ciglia & Carrai in Italy, Paris Academy of the Fine Art and Camille Claudel Museum in France.
