Louise Bourgeois: Extra images!

I'm just adding a few of my favorites as well! 

Throughout the exhibit I really enjoyed her printed works, some very large scale and abstract and others palm-sized and detailed. Most of the prints noted that they were done using "selective rubbing," Katie and I speculated maybe this was in order to create the different line weights and shades in many of them. Bourgeois would often go back in over a print with pencil or gauche, the layering of different media felt very raw. 

I took lots of photos of her lady drawings (duh), but my favorites from the retrospective were definitely the etchings of architectural spaces paired with free form stories. She seemed to use buildings and linear space as a metaphor for people or feelings or maybe just as an abstracted free form art-making technique; either way they are very curious.
