Frieze 91 members are invited for an exclusive Breakfast and Private Tour of the recently opened exhibition 'Louise Bourgeois: The Woven Child' at the Hayward Gallery, led by Curator Marie-Charlotte Carrier.
This exhibition is the first major retrospective of this legendary artist's which focuses exclusively on her work using fabrics and textiles. In the last two decades of her career, Bourgeois began to incorporate clothes from all stages of her life into her art. This developed into a varied body of work – from monumental installations, to figurative sculptures and abstract collages – incorporating textiles such as bed linen, handkerchiefs, tapestry, and needlepoint.
