Louise Bourgeois
Das Buch liefert einen Überblick über die textilen Arbeiten aus den letzten zwei Lebensjahrzehnten von Louise Bourgeois. »Ich war schon immer fasziniert von der magischen Kraft der Nadel. Nadeln werden benutzt, um einen Schaden zu beheben. Sie sind eine Forderung nach Vergebung.« Für diesen Werkkomplex verwendete die Künstlerin Kleidungsstücke aus allen Bereichen ihres Lebens, später erweiterte sie ihn um andere Textilien wie Bettwäsche, Tapisserien und Stickereien. In Bourgeois’ textilen Arbeiten setzen sich die Themen Identität und Sexualität, Trauma und Aufarbeitung, Schuld und Wiedergutmachung fort. Sie dienen als Metaphern emotionaler und psychologischer Zustände. Der Katalog, der zur Ausstellung in der Hayward Gallery und dem Gropius Bau erscheint, zeigt zahlreiche Arbeiten, wie die monumentalen Cell Installationen, figurative Skulpturen oder abstrakte Stoffzeichnungen.
