Now in a revised edition, Louise Nevelson: A Passionate Life is the only biography of this important 20th century American sculptor. From her birth in Russia, her girlhood in Maine, to her years as an artist in Manhattan, Nevelson's life was difficult, dramatic and, after years of struggle, finally triumphant. Her rich iconographyexpressed in black, white, and gold wooden assemblagesis an enormous and extraordinary prize-winning body of work found in parks, plazas, and museums throughout the world. "Lisle has conscientiously investigated the numerous bizarre events in Nevelson's long life" -Washington Post Book World "Lisle's book is impressive in its thoroughness . . . its eclectic introduction of psychological analysis" -Woman's Art Journal "Lisle's view of Nevelson's often ruthless behavior is both compassionate and clear-eyed . . . [and she] has constructed a colorful, rich study of Nevelson's creative evolution" -The Boston Sunday Herald

� propos de l?auteur

Laurie Lisle, who wrote the first biography of Georgia O'Keeffe, Portrait of an Artist, interviewed Louise Nevelson at length before her death as well as her friends and family members. The author searched the personal papers and photographs in Nevelson's archives and examined the artist's self-portraits in oil and wood. She discovered that Nevelson's exotic public persona was carefully cultivated to hide the seriousness of her private inner self. For more information about the biography see www.laurielisle.com.
