Louise Bourgeois Made Giant Spiders and Wasn’t Sorry

Louise Bourgeois was a world-famous artist who told stories of her life through her art until she was 98 years old.

Her famous giant spiders fascinate – and sometimes terrify – art-lovers to this day, but the truth behind the inspiration for these towering sculptors is not as scary as it may seem. This is an inspiring story about a young girl who became the first female sculptor to have a solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York – a unique picture-book celebration for children of one of the most important modern and contemporary woman artists of our time.
