Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) is widely regarded as one of the most remarkable and influential artists of the past hundred years. From giant spiders to embroidered heads and delicate drawings, the work she produced in her sevendecade career is as diverse as it is engaging. Drawing on the artist’s own writings and interviews, Ann Coxon’s accessible yet authoritative text serves both as a perfect introduction to Bourgeois for those coming fresh to her work and a source of new insights to those who have closely followed her career. With over 100 colour illustrations, this is a fitting tribute to her astonishing achievements.

Ann Coxon is Assistant Curator at Tate Modern. She has worked on a number of major exhibitions at Tate including the touring retrospective Louise Bourgeois. She is a contributor to art magazines including Untitled, Frieze and Art Monthly, and was a contributor to Louise Bourgeois, Tate Publishing 2007.
