Levine’s research on curatorial intervention appears in “Who Runs the Artworld: Money, Power and Ethics,” published by Libri, London. He served as the director of the former UAB Visual Arts Gallery from 2001-2011.

“Carlos Rolón: Boxed,” which features a variety of works exploring the sport of boxing,

is on display at the AEIVA through Aug. 4. As part of the exhibition, “Tokyo Boogie,” created in 2006, is on display for the first time in 15 years.

Rolón, a first-generation immigrant of Puerto Rican descent, was formerly known throughout the art world as Dzine. He lives and works in his hometown of Chicago, Illinois. His work is autobiographical, often merging his memories with his imagination. Rolón creates site-specific works. His work has been exhibited in museums across the globe, such as the Bass Museum of Art, Miami; Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico, San Juan; and the Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego; among many others.

AEIVA is open to the public 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday-Friday and 12-6 p.m. Saturday. It is closed Sundays and holidays.
