  • Ann Deborah Levy (b. ?) is an artist and moviemaker. Trained originally as a painter, she has exhibited her work, which has included drawing, installation, and photography, throughout the New York metropolitan area and across the United States. Her work has been reviewed in The New York Times, Art New England, and elsewhere, and she has received residency fellowships at both the Yaddo and MacDowell artist colonies. In the early 1980's she worked in experimental theater as a performer and designer. She was a member of the New York downtown theater group Abreaction Theater, a collaboration of visual and performing artists of many disciplines. Excited by the interdisciplinary aspects of theater but desiring a visual medium, Levy turned to filmmaking in the early 1990's. Her earlier short surreal narrative films screened in festivals, art galleries, and alternative venues across the country. Many of her films include artwork that she created specifically for the productions, crosscut with live-action footage. Her painter's eye is evident in the cinematography of all of her films, for which she does the camera work herself. Her two films on the water, Waterscape: Illusions and Watercolors, both 2007, are her latest work.
