Louise Bourgeois

About this book

PrĂĄcticamente desconocida por el gran pĂșblico hasta la gran retrospectiva celebrada en el Museo de Arte Moderno de Nueva York en 1982, cuando la artista contaba 71 años, la escultura de Louise Bourgeois (ParĂ­s, 1911), de marcado carĂĄcter autobiogrĂĄfico y personal, no es fĂĄcilmente catalogable en ningĂșn movimiento ni tendencia establecidos. SegĂșn sostiene la propia escultora, toda su producciĂłn gira en torno a una suerte de mito fundador: el adulterio de su padre, que introdujo a su amante, una joven institutriz inglesa llamada Sadie, en la casa familiar. De hecho, desde sus primeros dibujos y pinturas de "Femmes-maison" (Mujeres-casa), realizados en los años cuarenta, hasta sus "Cells", instalaciones a modo de celdas o pequeñas habitaciones, de los años noventa, pasando por sus esculturas de yeso y lĂĄtex de los sesenta o imĂĄgenes del cuerpo desmembrado de la dĂ©cada de los ochenta, toda su producciĂłn se halla marcada, de una forma u otra, por ese recuerdo de la "traiciĂłn" paterna. Ello no implica, sin embargo, que la escultura de Bourgeois tenga un significado exclusivamente Ă­ntimo o biogrĂĄfico. Su obra nos desvela las relaciones de poder, la situaciĂłn de opresiĂłn sexual y la experiencia de dolor que anidan en el interior de la familia patriarcal, demostrando en Ășltimo tĂ©rmino que, como subraya el cĂ©lebre eslogan feminista, "lo personal es polĂ­tico".
