Born in Kiev, in Czarist Russia, Nevelson established herself as a preeminent assemblage artist in the 1950s and '60s. Made of painted wood, they were often constructed as walls, taking on environmental scale. Stylistically, she straddled Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art. Like another woman artist of her generation, Louise Bourgeois, she was certainly influenced by Dada and Surrealism.. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/Fine. 8vo.
