New York, NY —

The new Guggenheim Museum exhibit Louise Bourgeois fills the rotunda with seven decades of the French-born artist's lifetime of work.

Visitors can see Bourgeois's concepts sketched out on paper displayed next to the sculptures and installations, and follow her career as an American artist through the eras of Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism and Post-Minimalism.

Over time, Bourgeois has worked with a wide variety of media, creating sculpted family surrogates from wood, spirals in aluminum, human figures from latex and resin, and whole narrative scenes in stitched linens, marble or bronze.
