Eva Hesse- Sculptor

Eva Hesse: a German artist whose works during the 1960s altered the course of sculpture when she adopted the use of commercial materials that she found in disused warehouses and factories, such as latex, fibre glass, wire mesh, wax and cheesecloth. Her rope piece Untitled (completed the year she died 1970) consists of a great tangle of rope dipped in latex and suspended from the gallery ceiling, like a 3D version of a drip painting by Jackson Pollock.

Here are some images of her work:
