Mumbling Beauty Louise Bourgeois Details
Review “This collaboration serves as a primal and poignant extension of Bourgeois’s art. Her theatrical spirit seems to defy the incredible frailty of her frame. These photographs are a record of one of our great modern artists, fading in body, still inventing with fervor while she can.” - The New Yorker Photo Booth Read more About the Author Alex Van Gelder lives and works in Paris.

Reviews
Louise B looks so vulnerable and old but beautiful in this book. Some pictures are a little disturbing because her face is all deformed (on purpose). Nice writings about photographer and how he met Louise and started a friendship.Nice if you love Louise as I do. Some pics made me sad :(
