Beyond Black: The Louise Nevelson Project
Wayne, Dale
Arts & Activities, v151 n4 p24-25 May 2012
Louise Nevelson, who is called the "architect of shadow," was a "dumpster diver" of her time, collecting found objects in the wee hours of the morning before trash pickup. Recognition evaded Nevelson until she created "Mood Garden + One" (1958), when she was almost 60 years old. In this article, students create their own assemblage using woodturnings, toothpicks, clothespins and craft sticks.
