Signed by the Artist. About the Artist: As described in “Neith Nevelson: In the Middle of the Night, ” Neith’s paintings are visions from her imagination and explore the figurative, symbolic and narrative. As described by the Miami Herald’s review of a 1994 exhibition, the form of her art reflects the conflicts and contradictions of her life, living in the world of her famous grandmother and the New York art world of the 1960s, hardship and isolation from family, and remembering and longing for childhood. Nevelson’s early work take the form of line drawings. Her style developed into complex paintings based on the gestural fluidity of drawing, underscored by her larger art-works which tend to combine elements of all her three major themes – Cubism, Surrealism, and Expressionism. Some art-critics have labeled Nevelson as “Outsider” artist. Nevelson grew up in Florence, Italy, and began painting at the age of two. She spent her childhood in Florence and New York City, and as a teenager moved to New York, to live in her grandmother’s studio. Nevelson studied briefly at the Accademia di Belle Arti, in Florence, Italy. As a student she concentrated on subjects she eventually became known for rather than the standard curriculum of still life drawings and landscapes, and was eventually expelled. Her first exhibition was in 1974 at the Galleria Nuova in Florence. Her last was in 1994; the catalog and exhibition were entitled, “Neith Nevelson: In the Middle of the Night”, by Wendy Blazier. She has lived in Coconut Grove in South Florida, since 1977. The item you see pictured is the actual item up for sale – not just a stock photo. What you see is what you get.
