Celebrating the release of ‘In the Studio: Louise Bourgeois,’ join us for a talk with The Easton Foundation’s Maggie Wright and Hauser & Wirth Publishers Editor Jake Brodsky. This program for university students will provide insights into the artist’s practice and the process for creating the new publication.

Born in France in 1911 and working in America from 1938 until her death in 2010, Louise Bourgeois created a vast body of work throughout her 70-year career, from intimate drawings to large-scale installations. She explored the full range of the human condition, transforming personal trauma into universal symbols of emotion and memory across a remarkable variety of genres, mediums and materials. In this generously illustrated and accessible guide to Bourgeois’s life and work, writer and curator Justin Paton explores how the artist’s studio became a site of psychological release and creative ingenuity. Combining Paton’s engaging insights with a timeline of Bourgeois’s life and career as well as extensive archival images showcasing Bourgeois’s working methods, 'In the Studio: Louise Bourgeois' is an excellent resource for both newcomers and those familiar with her groundbreaking work.
