Gallery Paule Anglim is pleased to announce an exhibition of recent works by Louise Bourgeois.
In the internationally renowned artist's third show at Gallery Paule Anglim, Louise Bourgeois will present cloth heads hand-stitched together from tapestry fragments and pieces of her own clothing.
The textural countenances will be exhibited in glass vitrines, designed by the artist. The heads and a pair of totemic cloth sculptures will be accompanied by a group of the artist's new drawings.
The artistic output of Louise Bourgeois spans more than five decades. Her work was given overdue recognition by her New York MoMA retrospective in 1982. She has since had many international exhibitions and represented the United States in the 1993 Venice Biennale. In 1999 she built three monumental sculpture towers for the inauguration of London's Tate Modern.
Internationally acclaimed for her mastery of a great variety of materials (marble, bronze, steel, glass, latex, plaster, fabric and wood,) she continues to address nearly obsessive themes of anxiety and alienation; of sex, identity and family history; of love and death.
