Author: Nevelson, Louise
This is the first volume in a new series from Silvana in concert with the Genesis Association that is dedicated to historical artists whose lives and/or work can be interpreted as prescient of the urgent social issues of today. It includes a critical text by the curator, Ilaria Bernardi and a chronology of Nevelson's life and key works accompanied by archival photographs and texts. Ukrainian by birth and a naturalised US citizen, artist Louise Nevelson (1899–1988) anticipated the theme of recycling and memory through her work made of assembled objects and industrial scraps. By opposing the conventions traditionally imposed on the women of her time, she anticipated today’s polarisation regarding gender expectations and women’s rights.
ISBN 9788836660445. Silvana Editoriale. hb. 152 pages. 70 colour ills. 24.1 x 17.1 cm.
