Descriere

Born in 1911, Louise Bourgeois began her career as a painter but switched to sculpture after her first solo exhibition in 1945. Her drawings, paintings, sculptures, and prints are almost obsessively autobiographical, depicting her concern with human isolation and with issues of gender. She has frequently stated that her personal style has evolved from her emotions. This book includes texts about the artist and her work, particularly focusing on four giant sculptures being prepared for the Unilever Series in the huge turbine hall at the heart of Tate Modern. There are also extracts from a lively interview recently conducted with the artist in her New York studio.
