Mira Brunner is an artist and an archivist based in Berlin. She spent many years working at the Louise Bourgeois Archive in Bourgeois’s New York City home, which is preserved as the artist left it. Bourgeois’s house served as a “mother-cell” to Brunner’s later work, acting as the context and model for the conception of much of her fabric work. Further, Brunner uses Bourgeois’s house as the starting point of her special guided tours through Louise Bourgeois: The Woven Child.

Together with the exhibition catalogue, a curated selection of publications on Louise Bourgeois is available in the Walther König Bookshop at the Gropius Bau.
