Art Gallery of NSW(New South Wales) Exhibition
Louise Bourgeois: Has the Day Invaded the Night or Has the Night Invaded the Day?
25 November 2023-28 April 2024
Day and night, love and rage, calm and chaos. Enter a world of emotional extremes in this exhibition
of the art of Louise Bourgeois, one of the most influential artists of the past century. Born in Paris in 1911
and living and working in New York until her death in 2010, Bourgeois is well-known for her fearless
exploration of human relationships across a seven-decade career.
Louise Bourgeois: Has the Day Invaded the Night or Has the Night Invaded the Day? reveals the
extraordinary reach and intensity of Bourgeois’ art, from unforgettable sculptures of the 1940s to her
tough yet tender weaving works of the 1990s and 2000s. It also reveals the psychological tensions that
powered her search, through a dramatic presentation in two contrasting exhibition spaces. Moving from
the well-lit rooms of “Day” to the darkened area of “Night”, viewers will encounter more than 120 works,
including many never seen before in Australia.
Tickets can be booked online via the exhibition or event page on our website, or in person at the

My husband and I were recently in Egypt, where the temperature was a bit warm for my tiny
princess self. So, we left Egypt. Back home, my dearest friends struggled with health stuff, with family
craziness...
The game of life is hard, and a lot of us are playing hurt.
I ache for the world but naturally I’m mostly watching the Me Movie, where balance and strength
are beginning to fail. What can we do as the creaking elevator of age slowly arrive? The main solution is
to get outside every day, ideally with friends. Old friends — even thoughts of them — are my comfort.
Recently I was walking along a beach with Neshama. We go back 50 years. She is 84, short and
strong. Every so often, she bent down somewhat tentatively （踌躇地） and picked up small items into a
small cloth bag.
“What are you doing?”
“I’m picking up micro litter. I try to help where I can.”
I reminded her of an old story. A great warhorse comes upon a tiny sparrow （麻雀） lying on its
