Maman's Sculptress Dies at Age 98

Catching up with some of the news, and just came across this one on the Ottawa Citizen website.

Louise Bourgeois has died.

French Sculptress of Maman, Louise Bourgeois, Dies at 98

Terribly sad news. And for those who are planning to visit the city of Ottawa any time in the near future, you really have to check out the Maman sculpture outside the National Gallery. Awe-inspiring, magnificent, beautiful, and utterly creepy, all at the same time.

Rest In Peace, Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010)
