Louise Bourgeois was born in Paris in 1911, moved to New York to work and live in 1938, and died in 2010. Best known for her large-scale sculptures, she is recognized as one of the most important and influential artists of the last century. Louise Bourgeois is generally classified as an Abstract Expressionist artist, but there are also elements of Surrealism and Feminism in her work. She went her own way and was not associated with any art movement in her life.
According to the British TATE Museum, one of the reasons why Louise Bourgeois's works are so powerful is that she suffered childhood trauma, including her mother who had always been sick and died when she was 22 years old. Her father was unfaithful to his wife and had multiple mistresses, which caused great harm to both mother and son. Because of the fear of being abandoned, there is often a theme of fear of abandonment in Louise Bourgeois's works. She was only 3 years old when World War I broke out, and the war had a great impact on her.
Louise Bourgeois's most famous works are her spiders. She began painting as early as 1947. By the 1990s, she created large spider works several stories high. She once said that spider sculptures were the "most successful objects" in her life. She used spiders to represent her mother. In her eyes, spiders are both predators and protectors.
This exhibition is her second solo exhibition in Hong Kong. The exhibition is jointly curated by the gallery and The Easton Foundation. It will present a selection of her works from the 1960s to 2008, including some rarely exhibited sculptures and works on paper. Among them, a three-meter-long fountain installation "Mamelles [fountain]" (1991) and a steel and marble sculpture "Spider" (2000) will be exhibited in Asia for the first time.

I purchased this tour via trip platform to avoid excess queue to the cashier. I got QR code on my email. Nevertheless queue to security gates were mandatory to all. I arrived 10 mins prior opening and there crowds of people. After all formalities i got into park easily and enjoyed my day. Worth it to buy via trip platform? Yes, as it was cheaper than in the official site. I could save even more if purchase ticket in advance. Thank you trip for making my day full of joy.

The Peak
No one comes to Hong Kong without visiting Victoria Peak, but the few times I went there before I took the cable car up and down. This time I followed a few friends to do a night hike from Central. Hike the mountains and walk on the moon in search of immortals, swim in the sea and chase the waves and play with dragons. The approximate route is Central Garden Road and Mid-Levels Escalator - Old Peak Road - Victoria Peak - down to Central. I have to say that Hong Kong is really suitable for hiking. This route is not difficult and it takes about 40 minutes to reach the top of the mountain. The happiness of climbing up by yourself and looking at the night view is something you can never experience by taking the cable car. Then I saw a wild boar 🐗 crossing the road.

It is worth visiting. The level of curation is very high. The exhibits are very exquisite. I personally like the exhibition hall 2, 5 and special exhibitions (the exhibition hall 1 is missed, and I will make up next time). The copywriting of the exhibition is really good, and it is shallow and literary. The excavation of historical details is also very deep. Can feel the intention and professionalism of the curatorial team, such as the Forbidden Day Sacrifice of the God of Sacrifice, the music sounds very shocking, the atmosphere is full, there is a feeling of immersiveness. Been to Beijing and Taipei Palace Museum, Hong Kong&#39;s experience is relatively better, there are few people, you can calm down to visit, no need to crowd people like war, the scenery is also beautiful, the viewing platform faces the sea, long-lost sense of relaxation.
