Cloth lullaby : the woven life of Louise Bourgeois

Novesky, Amy (author.). Arsenault, Isabelle, 1978- (illustrator.).

Summary: Before she became an artist, Louise Bourgeois was an apprentice in her family's tapestry shop, where her mother was a weaver of tapestries. Discover how Louise learned about form and color, and how memories of her mother and her past are stitched into all of Louise's works.
A beautifully nuanced and poetic story, Cloth Lullaby stunningly captures the life of Louise Bourgeois and tells the story of a relationship between a mother and daughter, the birth of an artist, and how memory is stitched into us all.
