Louise Bourgeois Structures of Existence: The Cells
This exhibition features an ample selection of the innovative, sophisticated sculptural works developed by Louise Bourgeois (1911–2010) over the course of two decades. Visitors will be able to discover and experience 28 emotionally charged architectural spaces, each an individual microcosm separating the internal from the external world, by one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. Louise Bourgeois’s concepts and formal inventions, such as her engagement with psychoanalysis and feminism, and her use of environmental installation and theatrical formats, have since become key positions in contemporary art. A prime example of this is the Cells, a series comprising approximately 60 unique pieces that Louise Bourgeois began in 1986 with ‘Articulated Lair’.
Until September 4th, 2016 at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, Spain
