Louise Nevelson Assemblage

Assemblage, is the process of bringing individual objects or pieces together to form a larger whole. For example, Nevelson managed to make a piece of almost endless variety and difference appear unified and coherent through the asymmetrical balance of its grid structure, the repetition of forms and shape and even more the black color. To Nevelson, black means totality, it means contains all because black encompasses all colors.

Carving is a subtractive process in which the material being carved is chipped, gouged, or hammered away from the inert, raw block of material. Michelangelo wrote, “Each stone held within it the secret of what it might become as a sculpture”. Carving is very difficult even the best artists had difficulty realize the concept.

Robert Rauschenberg (American, 1925-2008) is rightly famous for his freestanding and wall-hung "combine" (mixed-media) pieces created between 1954 and 1964. These works were both influenced by Surrealism and a harbinger of Pop Art and, as such, form an art historic bridge between movements. Rauschenberg picked up trash and found objects that interested him on the streets of New York City and brought these back to his studio where they could become integrated into his work.
