Louise Bourgeois

No, I have not attended the exhibition yet, but been looking over the Tate Modern web site to check the details.

They now have images showing some of the piece on display. I am surprised to see how much fabric she uses in her work. OK , so I tend to think of her metal spiders and do not know much more about her work beyond those !

The website details the contents of the 10 rooms.
Room 9 :http://www.tate.org.uk/modern/exhibitions/louisebourgeois/rooms/room09.shtm
Shows a fabric tower made of blocks. Below is a direct link to it !
