New Louise Bourgeois Exhibit Opens In Venice
Filed under: Art
Artist Louise Bourgeois died last month at the age of 98 but her unique legacy lives on in Venice, where an exhibition in the Magazzino del Sale planned before her death opened June 5. Bourgeois was working in her studio home until the end and the exhibit "Louise Bourgeois. The Fabric Works" will be the last show of her work that she was actively involved in. The exhibit was curated by Germano Celant in collaboration with Jerry Gorovoy of the Louise Bourgeois Studio, New York. The works are montages, collages and assemblages of pieces of her own clothes and linen and one of her famous large steel sculptures Crouching Spider, 2003, presides over exhibition in Venice. Pieces include her Fabric Drawings created between 2002 and 2008. Check out a few images from the exhibit at the Fondazione Vedova website
