Works from Louise Bourgeois’ seven-decade-long career
Spreading seamlessly from Compton Verney’s galleries into the surrounding landscape and featuring more than 40 works - including some which have rarely been seen in the UK - Nature Study brings together paintings, textile pieces, sculptures and works on paper made across Louise Bourgeois’ seven-decade-long career.
As well as providing an opportunity for visitors simply to revel in her output, the exhibition also explores numerous important themes in the artist’s work. These include: the importance of memory; the landscape as a metaphor for the mind and body; and the cycles of time and nature.
