Louise Bourgeois (1911–2010) was born on December 25, 1911. This book, which is devoted to the central themes of the late artist’s oeuvre, is being published on the occasion of her one-hundredth birthday. It examines her life, her exploration of the works of other artists, and the transformation of her emotions into works of art. Over the course of nine chapters, characteristic works are presented in the context of art history by comparing and contrasting them with works from the Beyeler Collection. The book brings home the fact that Bourgeois not only offset the important antagonism between the figurative and the abstract in modernism, she also helped to provide a unique interpretive level to modern art beyond that of the purely visible. This publication is an introduction to the life and work of a woman who was one of the most important artists of her time.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The recently deceased French-American sculptor Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) was one of the most important artists of the last century. Her fleshy blobs, skeletal spiders and the aggressive fragility of her work offered a new solution to the antagonism between the figurative and the abstract that had previously been part and parcel of modernism. Bourgeois herself provided a unique interpretive level to modern art through the uses she made of childhood trauma, family life and sexuality. This accessible study serves as both an ideal introduction to the central themes of the late artist's oeuvre and as a commemoration of her one-hundredth birthday. Over the course of nine chapters, it examines her life, her exploration of the works of other artists and the transformation of her emotions into such works of art as the now iconic pieces "Destruction of the Father," "Fillette," "Cells" and "Maman.". The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Artikel-Nr. GOR007616604

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neu neuware, importqualität, auf lager - Louise Bourgeois wurde am 25. Dezember 1911 geboren. Aus Anlass ihres 100. Geburtstages erscheint dieses Buch, das zentrale Themen des Schaffens der im letzten Jahr gestorbenen Künstlerin behandelt: die Verarbeitung ihrer Lebensgeschichte, ihre Auseinandersetzung mit anderen Künstlern und die Umsetzung ihrer Emotionen in Kunstobjekte. In neun Kapiteln werden exemplarische Werke behandelt und in den Kontext der Kunstgeschichte gestellt, indem sie mit Werken aus der Sammlung Beyeler konfrontiert werden. So wird deutlich, dass Louise Bourgeois nicht nur den für die Kunst der Moderne wichtigen Gegensatz zwischen Figuration und Abstraktion aufgehoben hat; sie hat auch dazu beigetragen, der modernen Kunst eine eigentümliche Interpretationsebene neben dem rein Sichtbaren zu geben. Das Buch ist eine Einführung in das Leben und Werk einer der bedeutendsten Künstlerpersönlichkeiten unserer Zeit.(Deutsche Ausgabe ISBN 978-3-7757-3151-5)Ausstellung: Fondation Beyeler, Basel/Riehen 3.9.2011-8.1.2012 Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) was born on December 25, 1911.
