HAUSER & WIRTH
Louise Bourgeois: My Own Voice Wakes Me Up
Dubbed "Spiderwoman" for the nine-metre-high arachnids she produced in the late 1990s (odes to her mother), the late French-American artist Louise Bourgeois gets a first solo exhibition in Hong Kong through Hauser & Wirth, curated by Jerry Gorovoy, who worked closely with the artist from the early 1980s until her death in 2010. My Own Voice Wakes Me Up takes its title from one of Bourgeois's writings and focuses on distinct bodies of work from the final two decades of her life, comprising fabric sculptures, hand poses, red gouaches, experimental large-format prints, topiary sculptures and rarely exhibited holograms. The exhibition coincides with Bourgeois's first large-scale museum tour in China, The Eternal Thread, which will be presented at the Long Museum in Shanghai and the Song Art Museum in Beijing. (March 26–May 11)
