LOUISE BOURGEOIS: THE SPIDER, THE MISTRESS AND THE TANGERINE

The Hirshhorn's Louise Bourgeois Exhibit Opens Feb 26

As an artist, Louise Bourgeois has for six decades been at the forefront of successive new developments, but always on her own powerfully inventive and disquieting terms. In 1982, at the age of 71,she became the first woman to be honored with a major retrospective at New York's Museum of Modern Art. In the decades since, she has created her most powerful and persuasive work. Filmed with unparalleled access between 1993 and 2007, this film is a comprehensive and dramatic documentary of creativity and revelation.
