I love Louise Bourgeois' art!

Documentarian Brigitte Cornand first met Louise Bourgeois in 1994 and over the next dozen years made a trilogy of intimate videos about the iconic artist, now 97, through an idiosyncratic form of collaboration between filmmaker and subject. The first installment of the trilogy, Chere Louise traces the inspirations, autobiographical sources and everyday routines that shape Bourgeois'; powerful art.
Film at REDCAT. Presented in conjunction with the retrospective Louis Bourgeois, on view at MOCA Grand Avenue through Jan 25. Info at moca.org.

"...a slow and insistent penetration into Bourgeois's daily practice.
