林冠艺术基金会将于2012年10月27日在北京798艺术区盛大推出由Jerry Gorovoy策划的“路易斯·布尔乔亚：孤身与共处”艺术展。路易斯·布尔乔亚是20世纪最重要的几位艺术家之一，此次是她在中国的首个回顾展。

展览策划横贯艺术家70年的艺术旅程，展选作品涵盖艺术家的多元创作，从她颇具感观美的青铜和大理石作品到悬挂起的铝制雕塑作品；从"密室"装置到她圆转柔滑的雕塑作品；从个人标志性的蜘蛛雕塑，到唤起联想的、空灵而飘逸的双联水粉画（纸本），与展览主题正相吻合。

布尔乔亚是一位知识分子性的艺术家，阅读极为丰富。对她而言艺术不仅是一份事业，更是她"在人间存在"的方式。布尔乔亚的创意很深刻地吸取了心理学分析的思路方式和立场。她曾经经历过巨大的精神创伤，梦魇一般萦绕着她。艺术却有力地帮助她驱赶心理上的折磨，帮她恢复完整的自我。在她以往经历和无意识思想构成的巨大迷宫中，艺术引领她走出一条通路，走向出口。

通过编织充满转喻的视觉叙事，艺术家的作品成为关于自己生活的一条条线索，相互交织形成庞大的"蜘蛛网"。这些故事同时也是关于人类本身的矛盾性与悖论的存在。当生活经历外化为艺术作品时，它们就成为能够让她的精神缓释，修复，熔炼的大窑炉。她的艺术将这样的矛盾挣扎充分呈现出来--处在"孤身"与"共处"之间，接触、沟通、交流其实不能完全实现但又必须去做。

从布尔乔亚的艺术可以明显感觉到她在"存在于世"的孤独精神状态和必须要与外在世界有所交互的矛盾中勇敢的挣扎，希望能取得一种平衡-艺术家对这样的状态深谙于心。我们是绝然的孤单但又不可避免的纠缠于外在世界。这种联系充满了焦虑和痛苦，但又是快乐的重要来源之一，也是我们能够在这种矛盾状态中坚持的原因。

Jerry Gorovoy长期以来一直从旁协助布尔乔亚。他所选的展出作品集中反映了艺术家自传式的创作主题，以及创作节奏，为中国观众带来一次难得的具有艺术治愈力，以及强大人性力量的布尔乔亚艺术创作。

Faurschou Foundation is pleased to present "Louise Bourgeois: Alone and Together," curated by Jerry Gorovoy, opening on 27 October, 2012, in the 798 Art District of Beijing. Considered one of the most important artists of the twentieth century, this will be Bourgeois' first retrospective exhibition in China.

Spanning Louise Bourgeois' seven decades of practice, the exhibition includes work from across her diverse oeuvre: from her sensuous bronze and marble works, to hanging aluminum sculptures, from her "Cell" installations, to her soft sculpture works; from her iconic spider sculptures, to the evocative series of "feathery" gouache diptychs on paper for which the exhibition is titled.

A fiercely intelligent, well-read artist, for whom the making of art was as much a means of 'being in the world' as a vocation, Bourgeois drew heavily on psychoanalytic thought. Performing uncanny exorcisms, she navigated the labyrinths of her past and her unconscious through her creations. Through the spinning of metonymical visual narratives, Bourgeois' work forms a web of stories about her life that are simultaneously stories about the paradoxes of the human condition and served as a crucible in which a Self - straining towards the nearly impossible yet existentially necessary act of connecting with Others - could be forged out of alienation and personal trauma.

Bourgeois' art embodies a courageous struggle to balance between the antinomies of 'being in the world' - alone and together - that the artist understood so well. We are mortally alone and we are inextricably connected. This connection is fraught with anxiety and pain, but it is also one of the great sources of pleasure and reasons to persist in our separate, yet intertwined existences.

Jerry Gorovoy, Bourgeois' longtime assistant, has selected a body of work that reveals the central themes and rhythms of her autobiographical art. Gorovoy offers China an unprecedented chance to be touched by the reparative, human power of Bourgeois' art.
 
Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010)

Born in Paris, France, in 1911. Bourgeois immigrated to the US in 1938, where she channeled her private traumas into intensely personal artwork. Significant exhibitions include her breakthrough 1982 Retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art, in New York; 1993 Venice Biennale (where in 1999 she was also awarded the Golden Lion award); her Retrospective at Tate Modern, London (2007-2008), which traveled to the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris (2008), the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York (2008), etc.; and "Louise Bourgeois: Conscious and Unconscious," at the Qatar Museums Authority, QMA Gallery, in Doha (2012). Her coming retrospective, "Louise Bourgeois: Alone and Together," at the Faurschou Foundation Beijing, brings a multidisciplinary body of works to China from 27 October 2012 to 24 March 2013.
