Item Number: 127437 Title: LOUISE NEVELSON Author: Cora, Bruno (ed) Price: Not Available ISBN: 9788857218533 Description: Milano: Skira, 2013. 28cm., pbk., 208pp., 105 illus. Italian-English text. Exhibition held at Palazzo Sciarra, Fondazione Roma Museo, Rome. Summary: Promoted by the Fondazione Roma, organized by the Fondazione Roma-Arte-Musei and the Arthemisia Group in association with the Fondazione Marconi of Milan, the exhibition on Louise Nevelson is dedicated to the American sculptor of Russian origin, Louise Berliawsky Nevelson (1899 - 1988). Works by Louise Nevelson occupy an important place in twentieth century sculpture and she is correctly classified amongst the historic avant-gardes, from Futurism to Dadaism, especially amid those artists who used everyday objects for their creations such as Duchamp, Picasso and Schwitters. A nucleus of over 70 works illustrate the artist’s activities, starting from the drawings and the terracottas produced during the Nineteen-Thirties, to the assemblages in painted wood in the Fifties and the masterpieces of the Sixties and Seventies up to the important mature works created in the Nineteen Eighties, all of which belong to important national and international collections.
