Sculpting a Message People who know artists say that artists look at the world differently. This saying was true for Louise Nevelson, one of the world's most celebrated sculptural artists. Until Louise Nevelson's time, sculptures were made primarily of carved stone or poured metal. Louise Nevelson, however, created completely different types of sculptures. Hers were assembled from ordinary objects. Artists of the first half of the twentieth century were inventive in their subject matter and technique. It was an exciting time in the art world. Even among innovators, Nevelson distinguished herself. Instead of cutting stone or pouring metal, she built her art. She deliberately sought discarded items (she called them "found materials") such as pieces of wood, tin cans, and pieces of items out of trash cans. She grouped them in varying combinations inside boxes and then stacked the boxes on top of one another. Known as wall sculptures, these structures were usually painted a single color, most often black. Sky Cathedral, one of Nevelson's most well-known sculptures, consists of 38 boxes of varying sizes. For the viewer, Nevelson's sculpture creates a feeling very different from the origins of the materials. Viewers experience a sense of awe and mystery when they see her artwork. Writers have speculated about the meaning of her work, often seeing the boxes as filled with symbolism. For example, the disarray of objects inside the boxes is said to represent her past, while the pieces of debris symbolize memories of unknown people or bits of life. Reset Next

Well, although the most prevalent example right now is of course the coronavirus pandemic, events like this have happened all throughout history. Think of the Black Death: it swept through Europe, killing tens of thousands and pretty much ending the system of feudalism. Though in modern times these pandemics have less potential to upend systems, they remain game changers. The H1N1 epidemic - the Spanish flu - sent shockwaves throughout the globe because of its scope and lethality.
