Secret Knowledge Tracey Emin - Louise Bourgeois

Taking us on a tour of Bourgeois' work at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art and the Fruitmarket Gallery in Edinburgh, Tracey discusses Bourgeois' art, their friendship and the experience of working with the great artist: 'I felt like I was holding the baton of time, of history, and that Louise was helping me through to the next stage of my life'.

I love the look in Tracey's eyes when she speaks so fondly of Louise's artwork 💝

Great to see rarely seen Bourgeois drawings and respect to Tracey Emin for her commentary.

Thanks, Tracey, I am inspired by you and by Louise. Hope I have the opportunity to meet you one day and even collaborate. I am a writer-artist. Love artists who combine genres and honor the passion and intellect. Best wishes, Christy

Imagine finding kinship with artists, both distant relationships. One's distance through death, one's through earthly geography. I'm so grateful.

- there's no secret., If you know the right people you can get anything in a gallery.

[@faustlacrimosa]

If you know the right people, you can also marry anyone rich with flowing cash.

[@jsgArtist]

Exactly ! It's just a mafia système.

[@susand484]

People don't like things that they don't understand. TG there are people with who don't pay attention to disapproval.

[@pinkpanther7030]

Home for run away girls. That's rich😊

[@BERTTTification]

that "organ" sculpture looks like a croissant.

[@hannawagenknecht6378]

Sie hat zerstört, um etwas Neues zu schaffen .

[@ChinaWatchCanada]

a sick and broken woman..how far we have fallen

[@vyrlpad]

Another Frida traumatized!

[@jsgArtist]

No she is not...just another Gallery who try to bé a good seller !

[@vtoria2759]

All this drawings is her and her father, he abused her for sure. She hated him, she was constantly talking about him, and her past.

[@lesleyseville8425]

V Toria Glad somebody see s what I see.

[@jsgArtist]

And not intérêst for me.

[@MoleyRusselsWart_]

Absolutely. There was a muddied relationship there.

[@public.public]

Some nutter's neurosis bigged up in the middle of the High Street... exactly what everyone needs...

[@FuuuckOffff]

Let's be honest, the fella with the hair, the 'assistant'. He's doing the heavy lifting here. Bourgeois wasn't sculpting 30 foot spiders, nor was she actually welding Cells together in 1989. May seem an unimportant point, but the deception is necessitated by her own theory of art as therapy. She claimed art was therapeutic because of its processes, not in its product, but it's clear she wasn't actually physically able to participate in the majority of those processes. She was essentially letting other people produce what the market wanted, which was paint-by-numbers symbolic sculpture with her name slapped on it.

[@Earnshawfully]

Don't be ridiculous. A fit athlete could not have made the huge bronze spiders by themselves. Go and read some art history. You will find there have always been studio assistants and students helping great artists.

[@sherpaderpa1]

Crap, pure crap

[@ignasbednarczyk1987]

Embarrassing. Me. I. 3.39 of Tracey Emin talking about HERSELF. How awful.

[@chrisacos1]

tracey emin is not an artist she a scam if you ever buy her work is worth nothing and it is not gonna last that long .

[@MoleyRusselsWart_]

christopher Acosta Clearly, you’ve been sucked in by the hype of her older work.

[@bigjohndavid1]

Tracey Emin is unlistenable, and spoils my appreciation of the mad artist in question.

[@twilightbabe123]

I could do without this woman’s interpretation of the artwork. Louise’s work appears to have come from a place of trauma and abuse. Some people manage to heal and move on. Not so sure she is in this category.
