  • Artist: Louise Bourgeois (French, 1911-2010)

French-American painter, printmaker, and sculptor. Her early works were primarily paintings and prints, switching to sculpture in her later works. She is most well-known for her large-scale sculptures and installations. She explored the themes of loneliness, fear, jealousy and anger, veering between figuration and abstraction.
