Rome's Galleria Borghese hosts an exhibition by Louise Bourgeois, the French-American artist best known for her large-scale sculpture and installation art. Titled Unconscious Memories , the exhibition is the first at Galleria Borghese to be dedicated to a woman contemporary artist, and the first Rome exhibition of work by Bourgeois (1911-2010). Organisers say the exhibition focuses on Bourgeois’ contribution to sculpture and the deep connection between her artistic practice and the Galleria Borghese, "interweaving the artist’s personal memory with the collective memory of the public museum".
