Louise Bourgeois: The Return of the Repressed

$45.00

A definitive two-volume set comprising Louise Bourgeois’ previously unpublished psychoanalytic writings alongside a complete overview of her work.

Louise Bourgeois (1911–2010) invented a new kind of language for sculpture--a language that was essentially psychoanalytic, uniquely capable of expressing oedipal struggle, ominous forces of repression, sexual symbolism and material uncanniness.

Edited by Philip Larratt-Smith. Text by Louise Bourgeois, Elisabeth Bronfen, Donald Kuspit, Juliet Mitchell, Mignon Nixon, Paul Verhaeghe with Julie de Ganck, Meg Harris Williams.
