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.

Read the selection below and answer the question. an open boat by alfred noyes o, what is that whimpering there in the darkness? 

 'let him lie in my arms. he is breathing, i know.
 look. i'll wrap all my hair round his neck' – the sea's rising,
 the boat must be lightened. he's dead. he must go.' 


 see - quick - by that flash, where the bitter foam tosses, 
 the cloud of white faces, in the black open boat, 
 and the wild pleading woman that clasps her dead lover 
 and wraps her loose hair round his breast and his throat.
 'come, lady, he's dead.' - 'no, i feel his heart beating,
 he's living, i know. but he's numbed with the cold. 
 see, i'm wrapping my hair all around him to warm him.' -
- 'no. we can't keep the dead, dear. come, loosen your hold.

 'come. loosen your fingers.' - 'o god, let me keep him! ' -
 o, hide it, black night! let the winds have their way! 
 and there are no voices or ghosts from that darkness, 
 to fret the bare seas at the breaking of day. the imagery and word choice in the second stanza creates a tone of liveliness and joy danger and gloom silence and peace anger and hostility
