Louise Nevelson

I'll be honest and say that i favor Louise's Nevelson's use of the boxes so far! They have blown me away at one glace! All the pieces sometimes protrude from the boxes, other times it appears that there are levels of depth to the boxes. If i was near one, id hold it in front of a wall in a dark room and point a flashlight at it to see the different shadows. Call me weird if you'd like.

On a larger scale, this is an example of Nevelson's work. Its my favorite because it evokes a childlike excitement in me. I want to go inside and explore it. My imagination is running wild just looking at it. Thats the best way to explain why this is my favorite of all the Nevelson pieces i've seen :-)
