The artwork, titled “Night Tree,” was created by artist Louise Nevelson in 1971. It belongs to the Abstract Expressionism movement and is classified under the sculpture genre.
The artwork is a vertical assemblage consisting of various geometric and organic shapes that are intricately arranged. Featuring predominantly dark hues, the sculpture stands tall on a rectangular base. The contrasts and interplay between the solid and void spaces, as well as the diverse forms, distill a sense of both complexity and unity. The visual rhythm imbued within the piece reflects Nevelson’s mastery in balancing form and space, creating an intellectual and emotional resonance.
