Louise Nevelson: Dawn to Dusk
When I was growing up in Rockland from grammar school to high school there was no museum. One of the great joys of my life is that we have a first-rate one now—a beautiful building that encloses creative works that can stand with the great ones. This is something that I had not expected in my wildest dreams to find in a town in Maine—that jewel that shines.
Louise Nevelson (1899-1988) wrote these words following an exhibition of her work at the Farnsworth Art Museum, in 1985. In the four years preceding the exhibition, Nevelson donated 87 pieces of art to the museum, including 56 of her own works. Her brother, Nathan Berliawsky, and sister, Anita Berliawsky Weinstein, also made significant gifts, making the Farnsworth’s Nevelson collection the second largest holding of the artist’s work, after the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City.
The exhibition, Louise Nevelson: Dawn to Dusk, traces the artist from her formative years to her emergence as a sculptor of international renown through works selected from the museum’s collection.

Week 10 Portraits of Artists (1396 – 1400) 3/31 – 4/5/2024 ID 1400
Louis Nevelson American, born Ukraine 1899 - 1988
Woman with a Red Scarf (Self-Portrait) , c. 1947
Oil on board
In this psychologically charged self-portrait, Nevelson depicts herself surrounded by stars and encircled by a red scarf that binds her hands, an anguished stance for an artist.
This emotional portrayal may relate to the sudden death of her dealer and close friend Karl Nierendorf in October 1947. Nierendorf had been among the first to show her work and his death threw Nevelson into a period of despair.
