Nina Levitt is an artist working in photography, video and interactive technologies. Her practice is concerned with the ways women have been imaged and imagined in popular culture. From resurrecting lesbian pulp novel covers in photographs made in the mid 1980s to video installations about women in space to her recent obsession with women spies, Levitt often relies on the recovery and manipulation of existing images and texts.

Notable recent exhibitions include Otherworldly (Federation Square, Melbourne Australia, 2007), Thin Air (The Koffler Gallery, Toronto, 2008), Relay (The Robert McLaughlin Gallery, Oshawa, 2008), Little Breeze, St. Mary’s University Art Gallery (Halifax 2010). She is currently working with the SOVFOTO press photography collection at the MacLaren Art Centre in Barrie for an exhibition there in 2010. A feature article on her work was published in Spring 2009 issue of Canadian Art.
Nina is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Visual Arts at York University. Her work can be found at www.ninalevitt.com
