Book Description

Publication Date: July 2, 2003

Description: "There is a constant desire to manipulate instead of being manipulated. Art is manipulation without any intervention." So said Louise Bourgeois in a 1988 statement, and so she has attempted to do throughout her life's work, which continues to this day. This modest yet comprehensive volume reveals Bourgeois' Life as Art, reproducing a range of work from throughout her career alongside a selection of photographs, incisive essays and an illustrated biography.
