Louise Nevelson's Untitled (1974) brings the sculptor's signature assemblagist vision to an intimate, collage-based format. At the height of her international reputation in the early 1970s, Nevelson continued weaving together the visual languages of Constructivism and Cubism—building worlds from repurposed objects. This work on wood panel offers rare access to that sensibility at a scale and price point that her monumental sculptures cannot match.

Against a deep black acrylic ground, a cross-shaped wooden frame anchors the center, its warm honey-toned wood set in sharp relief against the darkness. A pale circle hovers in the upper left while torn newspaper and a decorative scroll-cut molding populate the right edge, lending the surface an architectural density. Smoky brushed forms bleed across the field. The violin bow, newspaper, and salvaged wood speak to Nevelson's lifelong practice of finding sculpture in discarded material.

Acquired directly from Pace Gallery around the time of its creation—Nevelson's primary dealer since 1963—this work has never appeared at auction. The Whitney Museum of American Art presented a major Nevelson survey from April through August 2025, reaffirming her place in the American modernist canon. With a catalogue raisonné currently in progress, works with clean provenance like this one are increasingly rare.
