Location: Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden

The Hirshhorn Museum presents the first major survey since 1995 of the work of the French-born artist Louise Bourgeois (born 1911).

Bourgeois has worked in dialogue with most of the major international avant-garde artistic movements of the 20th century, from Surrealism to Conceptual art, but has always remained uniquely apart, powerfully inventive and often at the forefront of contemporary practice.

Engaging in a wide variety of both modern and traditional techniques, Bourgeois has explored her themes in a great variety of styles from abstraction to the realism of the readymade.
