Arttyco on Instagram: "LOUISE BOURGEOIS A work must be felt before it is understood. Today we share a rare interview reel with Louise Bourgeois, recorded in the 1990s — a moment where her voice brings us closer to a practice that refused explanation and trusted sensation. For Bourgeois, if a sculpture needs to be explained, it has failed. What matters is the immediate, visceral response — the encounter that happens before language, before interpretation, before meaning is asked for. The artwork

Tate on Instagram: "‘Art is not about art. Art is about life, and that sums it up.’ - Louise Bourgeois was born on Christmas Day 1911 in Paris. 💚 ❤️ At 27, Bourgeois moved to New York City after marrying American art historian Robert Goldwater. She began her career with paintings and drawings in the 1940s and by the 1960s had begun to experiment with wood, plaster, latex and other solid materials to create bold and subversive sculptural forms. In our 2016 film, her friend and assistant of over

On Contemporary Art on Instagram: "Louise Bourgeois on why a work must be felt before it is understood. If a sculpture needs to be explained, she considers it a failure; what matters to her is an immediate emotional response, not a verbal interpretation. For her, a sculpture should provoke an immediate, visceral response before any questions of “what it means” arise. When a viewer asks for an explanation, she sees it less as a chance to clarify and more as a sign that the work has not yet done i

Brainard Carey, Director of Praxis Center on Instagram: "Over the course of her seven-decade career, Louise Bourgeois never privileged figuration over abstraction, any more than she favored one material over another, and yet her relationship to abstraction has been less well defined and understood, less easily situated within the main currents of postwar art. ‘Gathering Wool,’ curated by Philip Larratt-Smith, explores the artist’s complex relationship to abstraction through a series of late scul

History of Art on Instagram: "Louise Bourgeois recounts a story about what she described as her father’s idea of amusement at the dinner table. Louis—after whom she said she was named—was a domineering and often intimidating presence in her life. He became a central, frequently antagonistic figure whose behavior left a deep mark on her, shaping her art through recurring themes of betrayal, abandonment, and struggles for power, most famously expressed in works such as The Destruction of the Fathe

Ella Fontanals Cisneros on Instagram: "Today I’ll tell you about the spider sculptures of Louise Bourgeois. For her, the spider did not represent fear, but protection, memory, and motherhood. These monumental figures speak of fragility and strength at the same time, transforming personal experience into a universal language that confronts us with our deepest emotions. #art #artandculture #museums #artgallery #contemporaryart"

Female Poets on Instagram: "“I must destroy, rebuild, destroy again.” ❤️‍🔥 Louise Bourgeois grew up watching her mother carefully repair and fix broken things. But for Louise, “fixing” wasn’t the answer. She believed that life isn’t a straight line and that sometimes, you have to break things to truly understand them. “If I am in a positive mood, I’m interested in joining. If I’m in a negative mood, I will cut things. My mother was a restorer, she repaired broken things. I don’t do that. I cann

FairArt on Instagram: "Louise Bourgeois grew up watching her mother carefully repair broken things. But for Louise, fixing wasn’t the point. Life wasn’t linear - and understanding often required breaking things open. In this video, she breaks rhythm - not out of anger, but to clear space for something new. Destruction became her method, a way to turn overwhelming emotion into form. “I must destroy, rebuild, destroy again.”"
