Louise Bourgeois, (American, 1911–2010)《路易絲.布爾喬亞:剛從地獄回來》(Louise Bourgeois: I Have Been to Hell and Back. And Let Me Tell You, It Was Wonderful)展覽


#臺北文創迷】從地獄歸來——巨型蜘蛛雕塑藝術家路易絲.布爾喬亞大型展覽3/15首次登台!#富邦美術館2025
​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​
當地獄的邊緣展開,巨大蜘蛛如夢似幻地佇立。即將於3月15日於富邦美術館展出的《路易絲.布爾喬亞:剛從地獄回來,順便說一句,太精彩了》(Louise Bourgeois: I Have Been to Hell and Back. And Let Me Tell You, It Was Wonderful)展覽,將是臺灣首次回顧布爾喬亞的創作世界,超過60件作品帶領我們走進她充滿情感與深度的藝術旅程。
​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​
本次展覽分為三大展區,分別是「第一章:不要遺棄我」、「第二章:剛從地獄回來」與「第三章:天空的修復」,每一區都深入探討布爾喬亞如何在痛苦與掙扎中找尋創作的力量。此外,還有兩個附章,將呈現她難得一見的早期繪畫和1960年代的雕塑作品。而兩件巨型蜘蛛雕塑,則是這場展覽中最具震撼力的焦點之一,將如母親般張開雙臂,充滿守護意味,又帶著難以言喻的脆弱與堅韌,等待觀眾親自感受它們的美麗與深邃。
​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​
路易絲.布爾喬亞(Louise Bourgeois)生於法國巴黎,家中經營掛毯修復生意,這樣的家庭背景對她的藝術創作有著不可抹滅的影響。經歷兩次世界大戰,以及母親長期患病、父親風流專橫的童年,造成她內心的陰影及對親密關係的矛盾心理。20歲時,母親的逝世促使她放棄原先的數學專業轉向學習藝術,試圖以創作來縫補內心的裂痕。
​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​
26歲時,布爾喬亞與美國藝術史學者結婚,隨後移居紐約,開啟了漫長的創作生涯。在異鄉,她透過雕塑、繪畫、裝置等多種媒材,探索男性與女性、依附與獨立、理性與情感之間二元對立的張力。她的作品既暴露出內心的恐懼與脆弱,也同時展現了直面傷痛的勇氣與韌性,從不否認痛苦,更將痛苦化為希望——是的,她剛從地獄回來,而這一切都太過精彩!

Happy birthday to Louise Bourgeois, born on this day in 1911. "Eyes" is a large marble sculpture that shows the persistence of Surrealist iconography in her late work. The eye, a recurring motif in Surrealism, served as both a symbol for the act of perception and as an allusion to female sexual anatomy.

「藝術是我理解自我和周圍世界的方式。」圖片展示的是法裔美籍藝術家路易絲·布爾喬亞(1911-2010),她是20世紀最具影響力的藝術家之一。布爾喬亞創作頗豐,以其巨型雕塑、複雜的裝置藝術以及繪畫和版畫而聞名。她的作品探索了廣泛的主題,包括家庭生活、性與身體、死亡以及潛意識,並大量借鑒了她童年時期痛苦的記憶。藝術對她而言是一種療癒方式,讓她得以面對內心的掙扎與恐懼。儘管她曾與抽象表現主義藝術家一起展出作品,但布爾喬亞並未正式歸屬於任何特定的藝術流派,她更傾向於將自己定義為存在主義者。在與癌症抗爭多年後,她於2010年去世,享年98歲,期間她不斷發展自己的藝術視野。

Art is my way of understanding myself and the world around me." The image shows French-American artist Louise Bourgeois (1911–2010), one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. Bourgeois was prolific, renowned for her monumental sculptures and complex installations, as well as her paintings and prints. Her work explored a wide range of themes, including domestic life and family, sexuality and the body, death, and the unconscious, drawing heavily on the troubled memories of her childhood. Her art served as a form of therapy, allowing her to confront her inner struggles and fears. Although she exhibited with Abstract Expressionists, Bourgeois did not formally belong to any specific art movement, preferring to define herself as existential. She continued to develop her artistic vision until her death in 2010 at the age of 98, after battling cancer in her later years.


Born on Christmas Day 1911 in Paris -  French artist Louise Bourgeois was (1911-2010), a visionary artist who turned emotion into form and vulnerability into strength. Known for her monumental sculptures and deeply personal creations, Bourgeois explored themes of memory, family, and the human condition with unparalleled honesty.  Using art as therapy, she gave form to her emotions and developed a body of themes and motifs in sculpture, drawings and editions, as well as in painting.

“Life is made of emotions. The objects I have created make them tangible” - Louise Bourgeois.

“It is not so much where my motivation comes from but rather how it manages to survive.”

"I do not need the musing of the philosophers to tell me what I am doing. It would be more interesting to let me know why I am doing it."

"It is a great privilege to be able to work with, and I suppose work off, my feelings through sculpture."

"What modern art means is that you have to keep finding new ways to express yourself, to express the problems, that there are no settled ways, no fixed approach. This is a painful situation, and modern art is about this painful situation of having no absolutely definite way of expressing yourself."

“You learn for yourself not for others, not to show off, not to put the other one down/ learning is your secret, it is all you have, it is the only thing you can call your own. nobody can take it away…”

- Louise Bourgeois: The Return of the Repressed/Psychoanalytic Writings

“I am not what I am, I am what I do with my hands…”

"Art is a guarantee of sanity. That is the most important thing I have said."

- Louise Bourgeois (Dec 25, 1911 – May 31, 2010)

法國藝術家路易絲·布爾喬亞於1911年聖誕節出生於巴黎。路易絲·布爾喬亞(1911-2010),一位富有遠見的藝術家,她將情感轉化為形式,將脆弱轉化為力量。布爾喬亞以其不朽的雕塑和深刻的個人創作而聞名,她以無與倫比的真誠探索記憶、家庭和人類境況等主題。她將藝術作為一種療癒方式,賦予情感形式,並在雕塑、素描、版畫以及繪畫中發展出一系列主題和母題。


「生活由情感構成。我創造的作品使它們變得觸手可及。」——路易絲·布爾喬亞


“重要的不是我的動力源自何處,而是它如何得以延續。”


“我不需要哲學家的沉思來告訴我我正在做什麼。” “告訴我我為什麼要做這件事,會更有意思。”


“能夠通過雕塑來處理,或者說釋放我的情感,這是一種莫大的榮幸。”


「現代藝術的意義在於,你必須不斷尋找新的方式來表達自己,表達問題,沒有固定的方法,沒有一成不變的途徑。這是一種痛苦的境況,而現代藝術正是關於這種沒有絕對確定的表達方式的痛苦境況。”


「你學習是為了自己,而不是為了別人;不是為了炫耀,也不是為了貶低別人。學習是你的秘密,是你擁有的一切,是你唯一可以稱之為自己的東西。沒有人能把它奪走……”


——路易絲‧布爾喬亞:《被壓抑之物的回歸》/精神分析著作


“我不是我,我是我雙手所做之事…”


“藝術是理智的保證。” “這是我說過的最重要的話。”


——路易絲·布爾喬亞(1911年12月25日—2010年5月31日)
