Exhibition catalog. Feb-Mar 2011. Louise Bourgeois, one of the most influential sculptors of the twentieth century, died in May 2010 at age 98. In the last year of her life, she invited the Dutch artist Alex Van Gelder to stay at her New York townhouse and photograph her. Of the hundreds of images that Van Gelder took, it is those depicting her hands that are the most astonishing. This beautiful clothbound publication presents 20 of Van Gelder's portraits of Bourgeois's hands.
