Charlie Levine is an independent curator. She specialises in creating communities of artists and partners to co-create complex art programmes for realisation across multiple venues. Specifically the designing and direction of the programme, the curatorial themes, working site / location responsively, bringing in the partners and developing (engagement) opportunities and legacy.
She enjoys working site responsively to alternatively archive places, people and events. Her key research themes include ‘the frame’ and ‘line’. She uses fiction as a starting point for exhibition making, alongside its context for viewing, and is inspired by collaboration. Levine is a passionate advocate of women and of the arts, especially in policy and place making, creating more accessible entry routes into the arts and promoting a more diverse and representative sector.
Levine works between London and Mumbai. She obtained an MA in Critical and Contextual Art Practices from Birmingham City University (2006) and started her curatorial career as founder and curator of TROVE, an independent art gallery in Birmingham (2009 to 2013). She has worked on projects with the British Museum and Historic England.
