Louise Nevelson

New York is My Mirror

A childhood immigrant to the United States from Russia, Louise Nevelson studied painting before coming to prominence as a sculptor in the late 1950s. Gathering found objects from the urban environment around her studio in New York, she presented them within boxes.
 

Barbara Hepworth's Letters

We discover some of Hepworth' letters in Tate's Archive and explore the landscape that inspired the her words and her work. Barbara Hepworth acquired Trewyn Studio in the centre of St Ives in September 1949. She immediately began working in the space and lived there until her death in 1975.
 

The Lovers

Man Ray originally created The Lovers (1933) in the aftermath of his passionate and sometimes volatile relationship with the beautiful American photographer and model Lee Miller. The lips painted onto the lead piece are said to be those of Lee, and the artwork is considered evidence of his continued longing for Lee after they parted.
