Louise
Nevelson was born Louise Berliawsky on September 23, 1899, in Kiev,
Russia. 1905, her family emigrated to the United States and
settled in Rockland, Maine. In 1918, she met
and married Charles Nevelson and
moved to New York. At this time, she studied visual and performing
arts, including dramatics, with Frederick Kiesler. Nevelson enrolled at
the Art Students League in 1928.
During this period, she was introduced to the work of Marcel Duchamp and Pablo Picasso. In 1931she briefly attended Hans Hofmann's
school in Munich. Nevelson returned to New York in 1932 and assisted
Diego Rivera on murals he was executing under the WPA Federal Art
Project. Her first public showing of her sculpture was in 1933. Two years
later, some of her work was part of an exhibit in the Brooklyn
Museum.
Her first major museum retrospective took place
in 1967 at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, which
became the turning point of her life. She continued to create and
exhibit her works during the seventies and the eighties.
Louise Nevelson was a woman with an independent mind and one of the most important American sculptors of the
twentieth century!
”When you put together things that other people have thrown out, you’re
really bringing them to life
– a spiritual life that surpasses the life
for which they were originally created." Louise
Nevelson
