“To create is an act of liberation and every day this need for liberation comes back to me. In terms of making a statement in art, which do you prefer, to scream or to be silent? It depends on what you want.”
—Louise Bourgeois

The ears represent two individuals trying to communicate with each other.

上色铜制复制品

condition:
A pinpoint area of minute loss to the patinated base, with an associated minute area of pale discoloration (mainly visible in raking light, measures approx. 1/4 x 1/4 in.), very occasional soft scuffing to the base (not distracting).

In our opinion, this work is in very good condition.

作者简介:
Known for her idiosyncratic style, Louise Bourgeois was a pioneering and iconic figure of twentieth and early twenty-first century art. Untied to an art historical movement, Bourgeois was a singular voice, both commanding and quiet.
Bourgeois was a prolific printmaker, draftsman, sculptor and painter. She employed diverse materials including metal, fabric, wood, plaster, paper and paint in a range of scale — both monumental and intimate. She used recurring themes and subjects (animals, insects, architecture, the figure, text and abstraction) as form and metaphor to explore the fragility of relationships and the human body. Her artworks are meditations of emotional states: loneliness, jealousy, pride, anger, fear, love and longing.
