專家說明

Louise Bourgeois' ECHO of 2007 was cast from a unique sculpture made of the artist's clothes which were draped, stretched and sewn into position, sprayed with a stiffening material to keep them in place so that a mold could then be made for the bronze casting; no plaster was used as is the norm with bronze casting. ECHO is reminiscent of Bourgeois' early personages from the late 1940s and 1950s in their totem like presence. Bourgeois saw the softness, folds and femininity of the ECHO bronzes as relating to maternal feelings of nurturing, protection and warmth.
