Louise Bourgeois

This lesson started awhile ago. It began with a talk about the French artist Louise Bourgeois. Then the class spent three weeks building there own version of Bourgeois' famous spider sculpture.



We used wire, paper, tape and paint. I'm very happy with the way they came out. But I wanted an interesting way to display them. So I photographed each student and their sculpture and superimposed them together so show more of the proportion you would see with Bourgeois' sculpture. The students got creative with their poses.
