Louise Nevelson® is one of America's foremost artists.  Nevelson's sculpted wood assemblages transcend space and transformed the viewer's perception of art.  For her brilliant compositions in varied mediums critics hailed her as the leading sculptor of the twentieth century.  A pioneering grand dame of the art world, Nevelson's iconic persona was characterized by her skilled mixing and matching of ethnic clothing, mink eyelashes, and especially her charismatic presence.  Her work can be found in major museums and esteemed private collections worldwide.
