Arik Levy
Arik Levy was born in Tel Aviv in 1963. He relocated to Paris in 1988, where he still lives and works today. Levy studied at the Art Center Europe in Switzerland. His creative work focuses primarily on industrial design as well as contemporary dance, set design, and furniture, clothing, and lighting design.
The artist has enjoyed a long-standing and ever-evolving collaboration with Swarovski. In 2009, he curated the Osmosis exhibition for Swarovski Crystal Palace and in 2011, he designed his own jewelry collection for Atelier Swarovski. His large-scale sculptural concept Rock Growth was installed beneath Brussels Atomium in 2014.
Arik Levy takes inspiration from nature’s archaic forms in his sculptures Rock. By altering scale and proportion, Levy brings the mythology of crystal into tangible reality. He explores the crystalline paradox of simultaneous transparency and impenetrability through a playful interplay of materials and textures. Arik Levy is an internationally renowned artist and has collaborated with Swarovski on several projects in the past.
