Experience impactful new displays by Louise Bourgeois, Helen Chadwick, and Robert Mapplethorpe, each offering distinctive and diverse approaches to the ideas of self-expression, identity, and the complexity of our inner life. Visitors will encounter Louise Bourgeois’s giant Spider (1994), standing at an impressive three metres high, an immersive sculpture and light boxes by Helen Chadwick and Robert Mapplethorpe’s striking self-portraits.
ARTIST ROOMS is a touring collection of over 1,600 works of modern and contemporary art. Jointly owned by the National Galleries of Scotland and Tate, the collection is displayed across the UK.
