Abstract Erotic 'Louise Bourgeois, Eva Hesse and Alice Adams'
Abstract Erotic 'Louise Bourgeois, Eva Hesse and Alice Adams'
This ambitious new catalogue highlights the erotic and playful sculpture of Louise Bourgeois, Eva Hesse, and Alice Adams, foregrounding their shared commitment to using abstract form to ask important questions about fluid sexuality, bodies, and humour.
In 1966, the groundbreaking exhibition Eccentric Abstraction, held at the Fischbach Gallery in New York, launched the careers of Bourgeois, Hesse, and Adams. It would profoundly shape the language and legacy of postwar American sculpture. This book returns us to that pivotal moment and, in bringing together these three important artists for the first time since 1966, explores the emergence of a new form of "abstract erotic" sculpture.
In this book, internationally recognised scholars of the three artists present new insights into their practice and its wider relevance to the art of the 1960s until now. By putting the work of Alice Adams in conversation with the work of established figures Bourgeois and Hesse, it aims to bring her work to the attention of a wider public.
