Abstract
As an artist, Louise Bourgeois has been at work for six decades, but always on her own inventive and disquieting terms. In 1982, at the age of 71, she became the first woman honored with a major retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art. In her 80s and 90s she created her most powerful and persuasive work - massive spider sculptures that have appeared all over the world. Filmed between 1993 and 2007, Louise Bourgeois shows her artistic methods and describes how her chilhood traumas and memories become embodied in objects and installations.
