The gallery opened its St. Moritz space with this posthumous presentation of Bourgeois, positioning the artist’s late canon within a luxury Alpine gallery setting and within Hauser \u0026amp; Wirth’s expanding international structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe brochure reproduces Bourgeois’s \u003cem\u003eCell (Choisy)\u003c\/em\u003e, 1990, on the interior spread, with a text work from 1959 printed to the reverse: ‘The sound of a pebble that falls in the black and distant water of a well. the unconscious memories that are reborn.’ The object moves between invitation, handout, and miniature exhibition record. It does not function as a catalogue, but as a retained support for the opening moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBourgeois’s work turns around memory, enclosure, family, sexuality, anxiety, and repair. Here those terms are carried through the language of the cell, the well, the unconscious, and the black butterfly. The commercial setting is precise: an artist associated with psychic interiority and bodily vulnerability used to inaugurate a new blue-chip gallery address.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA clean, scarce paper record of Bourgeois’s posthumous circulation through estate, foundation, gallery, and destination-market infrastructure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShipping and handling included in the listed price.
