1 June - 26 July 2008
Opening: Saturday 31 May, 5 - 8 pm

A metaphor for memory, for a life looked back upon, Louise Bourgeois’s 'La Rivière Gentille' (2007) is an astonishingly beautiful series on paper that wraps its way in three tiers around the upstairs gallery. Made up of 42 mixed media sheets, each almost a metre long, the series interweaves imagery and phrases from a text the artist wrote in the mid-’60s, which looks back upon her childhood in France.
