Louise Bourgeois .1

.

"A work of art does not need an explanation. The work has to speak for itself.
The work may be subject to many interpretations, but only one was in the mind of the artist.
Some artists say to make the work readable for the public is the artist's responsability, but I don't agree with that. The only responsability is to be truthful to the self.
My works disturbs people and nobody wants to me disturbed. They are not fully aware of the effect my work has on them, but they know it is disturbing."

(1979)
