• In Town — Los Angeles and environs

On the occasion of the artist’s first solo exhibition with the gallery in Los Angeles, Hauser & Wirth is proud to present a selection of previously unseen works on paper by Louise Bourgeois. Though Bourgeois created a heterogeneous body of sculpture extending over seven decades, writing, drawing and printmaking were an essential part of her artistic practice. Created between 2007 and 2009, this presentation depicts both words and images that confirm the artist’s interest in central themes of memory, trauma, nature, and the body.
