Ep 98: Book Talks: Drawings & Observations by Louise Bourgeois / Lawrence Rinder w/ Mandolyn Wilson Rosen

Louise Bourgeois Part 2!Mandolyn Wilson Rosen is back in her Book Talks seat to help me dissect a new delicious art book: Drawings & Observations by Louise Bourgeois with Lawrence Rinder. Bourgeois referred to these sketches as her "thought feathers" and revealed her thinking behind the reproduced works in recordings transcribed by curator Lawrence Rinder. It was so cool to get these direct insights into her imagery.This episode is a sequel to the recording right before this one (about our trip to view Louise Bourgeois' NYC home).
