Louise Nevelson: die poesie des suchens = the poetry of searching

Uittreksel

"A fantastical play of color, form, and material, this volume is filled with collages that take you on a journey of discovery. A remarkable artist from the New York art scene, Louise Nevelson (1899-1988) devoted herself to a wide variety of art forms and became a virtually unrivalled master in collage. With surprising uses of color and original forms, Nevelson brings together materials to create surprising objects--minimalist yet overflowing, sensitive, reserved, and experimental. She invites viewers to continually search for, find, and recognize new elements in her collages. Through dense imagery, it becomes breathtakingly clear why she enjoyed such great success in the United States during her lifetime. Featuring more than fifty artworks, this volume celebrates her unique oeuvre." -- Provided by publisher.
