Make time this summer to see The Sculpture of Louise Nevelson: Constructing A Legend at The Jewish Museum, now through September 16.
Vigorous motion within static form; textures smooth and rough; objects found and constructed, natural and woman-made; open enclosures and recessed shelters; formidably massive and intimately inviting; matte color, gleaming and shaded; verticality and voluptuous curvature; severity and whimsy; repetition and singularity; rhythmic and arrhythmic; black, white, antique gold, transparent. All of it suggesting the body. So much dancing in this body of work!
I cherished my time with it.
"...moving through the third dimension to the fourth and beyond...through matter to spirit." -- Louise Nevelson
