1CRITICAL APPRECIATION OF ART
In the contemporary globalized world of today culture is one of the most important aspect
of a person’s life. It aids in the development of the emotions of human beings (Zaidel, 2018).
This is essential because in the hustle of the city life and their never ending search for monetary
resources, has made people too much focused on the attainment of materialistic things. People
are no longer, or hardly interested to take some time and engage in their own culture (Mann,
2016). The essay begins with an introduction of the artist. This essay then seeks to analyze one
of the art pieces of Louise Nevelson, which goes by the name of City Sun scape. The essay
critically analyzes the chosen piece of art based on the seven steps of gallery analysis. The essay
concludes with the importance of art in the lives of human being.
Louise Nevelson is known for her expression of abstract art. In most of her work, she
utilized objects of wooden nature gathered from the debris piles in the urban areas. She did this
in order to give some significance to the discarded objects; trying to create something majestic
and meaningful from the debris pile. Louise Nevelson is known for her dominating personality
within the realm of art and is often associated with the Feminist art movements.
The art work on City Sun scape is one of the wondrous sculpture of Louise Nevelson.
The first step of gallery analysis is description of the art piece. The big sculpture is one of
Nevelson’s abstract expressionist piece of work which sought to provide a response to the male
dominated society during the middle of the twentieth century ("Louise Nevelson | City - Space -
Scape V (1968) | Available for Sale | Artsy", 2019). In order to design the sculpture Nevelson
used tiny pieces of the wood scraps that could be found near the site of extremely old buildings.
She nailed these pieces together and boxed them up in to tiny cubicles to give shape to the
sculpture.
