In this fifth lesson, students learn about Louise Nevelson, a significant 20th-century sculptor known for her unique assemblages made from found objects, primarily wood. The lesson explores the history and techniques of assemblage art, tracing its roots to Pablo Picasso and Dada artist Kurt Schwitters, and highlights the influence of notable artists such as Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg. Nevelson’s work is characterized by its monochromatic paint and complex box-shaped designs, often created from materials scavenged from the streets of New York City. Students will also get hands-on experience by creating their own assemblage with various found objects.
