Kind of blue It will contain paintings spanning four decades of Loewensberg's career and include the only sculptural work Loewensberg has ever created.
Loewensberg's art was influenced by concrete artists such as Max Bell. However, Lowensberg herself stated that “Bill was not a teacher to me, he was a challenge I had to face. It was as if I were a bird that had to learn to fly for itself.”
