Louise Bourgeois C Arthur Mones Brookly n Museum New York Bridgeman Images

Over her 70-year career, Louise Bourgeois established herself as a world-renowned artist who left an indelible mark on the art world. Her work is intertwined with her personal traumas, in which she developed themes linked to femininity, sexuality, family and early childhood. Using a wide variety of materials and objects imposed with a volcanic intensity, Bourgeois rejected all conventions and displayed her vulnerabilities in ways few artists had dared before her.

With interwoven excerpts from exclusive audio recordings and unpublished journal writings, the film sketches an intimate portrait of a profoundly divided woman, torn by exile, who constantly sought to impose a new vision of art – an art that reflects our inner questions, where emotion, fragility and anxiety become sources of strength. Louise Bourgeois is her work and her sculpture is her body.

The film is shown in conjunction with the exhibition Louise Bourgeois – Echo of the Morning at PoMo (05.02 – 31.05). The screening marks three years of collaboration between PoMo and Kosmorama.
