Deslaçar um tormento
Event
This big exhibition dedicated to the oeuvre by Louise Bourgeois (Paris, 1911, New York, 2010) spans seven decades, showing works made by the artist between the late 1940s and 2010.
Visited and revisited in countless exhibitions held over the past decades in various museum spaces around the world, Louise Bourgeois’ vast and unique body of work deals with themes indelibly associated with experiences and traumatic events of her childhood - family, sexuality, body, death and the unconscious - which the artist treated and exorcised through her art.
This exhibition is organised by the Serralves Foundation - Museum of Contemporary Art and the Glenstone Museum, Potomac, Maryland, USA, in collaboration with The Easton Foundation, New York, and co-produced with the Voorlinden Museum & Gardens, Wassenaar, Netherlands.
To Unravel a Torment is curated by Emily Wei Rales, Director and co-founder of the Glenstone Museum. At Serralves, the exhibition was organised by Philippe Vergne, Director of the Museum, with Paula Fernandes, Curator. This exhibition was generously supported by Hauser & Wirth Gallery.
