Filmed between 1993–2007, Louise Bourgeois: The Spider, the Mistress and the Tangerine presents an unparalleled view into the personal life and studio practice of the modern art legend. Illuminating the intentions and inspirations behind some of her most prolific sculptures and installations, the documentary delves into the imagination of the first woman to ever be honored with a major retrospective at New York’s Museum of Modern Art. Held in conjunction with the museum’s exhibition “Paper in Profile: Mixografia and Taller de Gráfica Mexicana,” the film series Artists of Mixografia continues with Kiki Smith: Squatting the Palace and A Brief History of John Badessari on July 14 and Ed Ruscha’s Miracle and Premium on July 21.
