Sculpture

Artist: Louise Nevelson
Title: Bride and Disk and Groom and Disk
Date: 1967

This is another piece created using wood. I liked these sculptures because they are so unique. I find it more powerful creating art as unique as these using scraps found. By painting these items in a white creates a unity between the scraps. This is like the one we saw in class that was painted as a brown color creating a unity between the pieces. The intricate details of the small pieces of wood put together shows how talented this artist was. This design and technique has a little more feminine nature than the one we looked at in class. The white and title being about bride and groom gives off a sense of unity, like marriage. This style of using pieces of scrap wood to create a piece of work about itself, does not signify sex or feminine nature.
