In an artistic career spanning seven decades, Louise Bourgeois (1911, Paris – 2010, New York) created a unique body of work in a wide range of form, material and scale.

In this exhibition, the first to concentrate on the "Cells" series, Haus der Kunst will assemble the largest number of "Cells" presented to date. It will also include important works from previous decades that led to the development of this body of work. This comprehensive survey will bring to light key facets of Bourgeois's thinking about space and memory, the body and architecture, and the conscious and the unconscious.
