Louise Nevelson was more than 60 by the time the art world acknowledged her as one of Americas greatest living sculptors In her early years she had little money for materials so she constructed her art out of discarded wood found abandoned in the streets of New York Transformed this unlikely raw material became the stuff of her famous black boxes and later the huge cubistic environmental art works which she innovated For Godmilows 1977 film Nevelson agreed for the first time to be filmed while she worked during the creation of two major new sculptures resulting in an invaluable document of her process A charismatic and dynamic personality with an iconoclastic approach to life Nevelson admits that her works are really for my visual eyea feast for myself
