Louise Bourgeois
Born in 1911 in Paris, Louise Bourgeois was raised in a household that famously included her fathers mistress, who was also Louises nanny. She studied philosophy and mathematics before turning to art in 1934, and over the next few years studied at various art academies and in the atelier of Fernand Léger, among others. She moved to New York in 1938 with her new husband, American art historian Robert Goldwater. Her first U.S. showing was in a print exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum, and over the next 50 years, she exhibited consistently in solo and group shows. In 1982, Bourgeois was the subject of the first retrospective ever given to a woman artist at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, and her work has remained in the spotlight ever since.
Monsters, ghosts, and aliens
La muestra presenta, en forma de "gabinete de maravillas", piezas artísticas que representan lo monstruoso en el arte a lo largo de la historia y que constituyen un referente del arte del siglo XXI, remitiéndonos a la problemática de las sociedades actuales respecto a la identidad, la soledad, la incomunicación, etc., reflejada en numerosos ejemplos que alteran las imágenes y la representación de la figura humana, con técnicas y herramientas electrónicas de gran eficacia, al tiempo que surgen las prácticas de manipulación del cuerpo mediante la intervención de la ingeniería genética y las técnicas de transplante de órganos, clonación y cirugía estética.
