Louise Bourgeois, Rest in Peace
“The subject of pain is the business I am in,” [Louise Bourgeois] said. “To give meaning and shape to frustration and suffering.” She added: “The existence of pain cannot be denied. I propose no remedies or excuses.”Holland Cotter's obituary is here.

A brave, groundbreaking, visionary creator. An artist's artist.
..oh, and the first woman to make it to the Major League.
What an amazing woman, literally carved the way for others to follow. She is an inspiration.
I love Louise!
I was sure she would make it past 100. Ah well. I hope her death wasn't painful, and I wonder what was the last work she ever made.
Goodbye Louise. Pain wasn't in vain: your work remains, you won't be forgotten,
Cedric
If she'd been born Louis, she would have been bigger than Picasso.
