Nine halls and sixty artworks from the 1950s to the 1980s. Sixty years after Louise Nevelson’s last Biennale participation in 1962, where she represented the United States, this revolutionary artist, a protagonist in American abstract art, is back in Venice with a large, articulate exhibition. Deeply indebted to the outcomes of Cubism and Constructivism, Nevelson’s art embeds unexpected combinations of shapes and matter. On exhibition, the iconic,monumental painted sculptures and collages, the manifesto of her passionate experimentation on space.
