Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) was a world-renowned modern artist
noted for her sculptures made of wood, steel, stone, and cast
rubber. Her most famous spider sculpture, Maman, stands more than
30 feet high. Just as spiders spin and repair their webs, Louise's
own mother was a weaver of tapestries. Louise spent her childhood
in France as an apprentice to her mother before she became a
tapestry artist herself. She worked with fabric throughout her
career, and this biographical picture book shows how Bourgeois's
childhood experiences weaving with her loving, nurturing mother
provided the inspiration for her most famous works. With a
beautifully nuanced and poetic story, this book stunningly captures
the relationship between mother and daughter and illuminates how
memories are woven into us all.
