About the Item

Contemporary abstract landscape oil painting titled "Water #424" by Louise LeBourgeois. Size: 12 x 12 inches. Oil on panel. Muted orange, earth tones. LeBourgeois’s paintings are inspired by Lake Michigan, which she not only lives near but also regularly swims in. Though her style shares many of the hallmarks of photorealism, she is concerned less with achieving a true visual likeness of her subject than with capturing an emotional response. Her close cropping of the composition and exacting attention to the texture of atmosphere and water affect a vastness and abstraction that gives her room to explore a scene’s kinesthetic impact. What LeBourgeois paints is not the lake itself but rather her experience of it: “There’s no way I can perceive Lake Michigan without perceiving it through my human body—eyes, skin, ears, brain, and other bodily organs.” The works consequently produce a sense of embodiment. We feel both buoyancy and depth—not just down, but also out toward the horizon and up toward the heavens as we inhabit her paintings. Louise LeBourgeois earned an MFA in Painting from Northwestern University in 1994 and an MFA in Creative Writing-Nonfiction from Columbia College Chicago in 2016. She has exhibited her paintings in galleries throughout the United States and in Italy, Japan, and the Netherlands. Her paintings are included in the collections of the Union League Club of Chicago, Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, The University of Chicago Hospitals, Fermilab, Ampersand Art Supply, Indiana University Northwest, as well as several private and corporate collections.
