| book description |

Bourgeois' deeply personal Cell works placed in a timeless dialogue with the masterpieces of the Galleria Borghese This volume follows an exhibition at the Galleria Borghese in Rome of works by Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010), one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. Casted Memory revolves around the Cells: architectural spaces that Bourgeois first created in 1991 and continued to expand upon over the following decades, combining monumental dimensions with a profound and intense exploration of her individual microcosm. The Cells consist of large metal cages housing objects and sculptures from her own personal life, alongside specifically created works. Thus, the Cells become devices of an individual and collective memory through the union of private and social spheres. Bourgeois' works are displayed alongside pieces from the collection at the Galleria Borghese in a fruitful juxtaposition between ancient and contemporary art. The catalog, edited by Philip Larratt-Smith, Geraldine Leardi and CloÃ© Perrone, is enriched by critical contributions by the curators themselves, by Anastasia Diaz and by the scholars Ã‰milie Bouvard and Ester Coen, as well as by an interview with Jerry Gorovoy by Carolina Sprovieri.
