This article presents the special issue and how it regroups contributions by authors who share the same object of study but who are rarely brought into dialogue with each other. They range from museum and gallery professionals to academics in art history and literary studies, who have written their contributions in French or in English. An interdisciplinary and bilingual space for established and new critical voices on Louise Bourgeois, this special issue is a scholarly état présent of the research undertaken at the Louise Bourgeois Archive. It brings to light interactions between word and image, literature and visual art in her work, and the importance of writing and words for Louise Bourgeois. This article also reflects on some of the risks faced by researchers in the Archive. It defines some of the tactics that such archival research requires, notably how distance, in order to assert an objective reading, can complement rather than cancel the seductive and feverish intimacy of archives and the interpretative gains they contain.","PeriodicalId":44046,"journal":{"name":"WORD & IMAGE","volume":"48 1","pages":"1 - 10"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87630612","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Des journaux intimes, que l’artiste Louise Bourgeois commence à utiliser à l’âge de onze ans et qu’elle continue à écrire durant toute sa vie, aux écrits psychanalytiques des années 1952–1966 découverts au début des années 2000, aux papiers administratifs, photographies, documents sonores et (audio)visuels: la majeure partie des archives est ici listée, classée, décrite et commentée. Ce regard exhaustif est porté sur une ressource désormais incontournable pour les chercheurs et curateurs qui se penchent sur l’œuvre de Louise Bourgeois, mais aussi sur les mouvements artistiques et périodes historiques dont ses travaux et ses écrits sont à la fois témoins et acteurs. Cet essai propose également une réflexion personnelle sur la portée des écrits intimes sur l’œuvre de l’artiste, les enjeux à la fois biographiques et symboliques de l’attachement de Louise Bourgeois à l’écriture, et à la manie conservatrice qui l’accompagne. Deux axes se croisent ainsi dans cet essai: une première approche méthodique, qui propose pour la première fois d’indexer les archives de Louise Bourgeois et fait de cet essai une ressource documentaire et didactique. Un second axe amorce une réflexion nouvelle sur l’œuvre de Louise Bourgeois, définissant les archives comme à la fois un lieu de documentation, de création et de conservation: les archives comme mémoire, atelier et musée.","PeriodicalId":44046,"journal":{"name":"WORD & IMAGE","volume":"358 1","pages":"19 - 29"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76520575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since her death in 2010, the Foundation exists as two spaces that are simultaneously distinct and interlinked: one is the former artist’s home and studio and the other, housed in the building next door to Louise Bourgeois’s townhouse, is the LBA. A research centre aimed at academic and art-world scholars, it is directed by Maggie Wright, who is also leading ongoing efforts to catalogue Louise Bourgeois’s vast collection of personal documents, a monumental enterprise in both scale and ambition. Academic and curatorial research into a late artist’s work requires dialogue and collaboration with the artist’s estate. The way scholars and curators interact with an institution set up to protect and promote the work of an artist is central to guaranteeing independent research work. Yet, the nature of these relationships is rarely commented upon, and the role played by artists’ estates often remains out of sight. Wright has agreed to be interviewed as part of this issue devoted to Louise Bourgeois’s archival writings and documents. The interview was carried out by email exchanges between January and April 2019. Wright’s description of the LBA details this emerging archival corpus ripe for scholarly exploration. The interview also provides a clear and extensive overview of the predetermined functions and roles of the LBA, giving an insider’s view into the workings of an artist’s archives and some of the ambitions and challenges that have determined the focus of this particular archive.","PeriodicalId":44046,"journal":{"name":"WORD & IMAGE","volume":"275 1","pages":"11 - 18"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76376335","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A detailed account is provided of an archival object of study, describing a corpus of letters in quantitative and material terms, as well as reporting on the various personal circumstances and historical events to which they refer. The essay also examines specific passages from letters by Bourgeois addressed to her husband, and from letters by Goldwater to Bourgeois. These letters, for the most part hitherto unpublished, offer an unprecedented glimpse into the inner workings of a marriage, which Louise Bourgeois, despite the self-constructed autobiographical nature of her work, kept mostly aside and private. Arguing that a publication of the Bourgeois–Goldwater correspondence enriches the scholarship on Louise Bourgeois and provides new research leads, this essay also instigates a subjective approach to the edition of Bourgeois’s and Goldwater’s letters as a work in progress, reflecting on the technical and ethical challenges it creates. The essay poses a wider interrogation of the possibilities and difficulties of archival research and the recasting of archival documents into published pieces of writing","PeriodicalId":44046,"journal":{"name":"WORD & IMAGE","volume":"1 1","pages":"39 - 47"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78100506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A founding figure of American conceptual art, Bochner has continuously re-examined the unstable nature of language. Yet, as the following paper will argue, Bochner’s postvernacular invocation of Yiddish calls into crisis this central contention of his work. Beginning with an analysis of selected works from his post-2000 Thesaurus Paintings, I suggest that Yiddish first served Bochner as a tool to confirm the instability of language by highlighting the futility of the idea of the synonym. I then turn to the multi-site work The Joys of Yiddish, which was mounted in Chicago (2006) and Munich (2013), to demonstrate the shift that occurs in Bochner’s subsequent Yiddish-themed art. Analyzing The Joys of Yiddish, I show that Bochner deploys a vision of Yiddish that is based on a set of received assumptions and stereotypes promulgated in twentieth-century American popular culture. As will become clear, Bochner’s conception of Yiddish produces a surfeit of questions not about the language’s complexity or instability but about its superficiality and anticipated signification. Extending Bochner’s painterly assertion that “language is not transparent,” this article asks: What about Yiddish?","PeriodicalId":44046,"journal":{"name":"WORD & IMAGE","volume":"27 1","pages":"337 - 352"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77974438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nonetheless, its singular imagery remains enigmatic and its contentious modern history largely unexplored. The late eleventh-century sarcophagus of the young noble Alfonso Ansúrez is both exceptionally clear and frustratingly enigmatic. Inscriptions label every detail, down to a cup labeled calix, and large carved figures signal the viewer through pronounced gestures, but the tomb’s details diverge from developing norms in funerary iconography. Unlike the common medieval representation of the deceased as a nude androgynous soul, the young Alfonso, while plainly identified by the inscription “deceased Alfonso,” is shown fully dressed and animate. This article argues that the tomb depicts Alfonso’s reception of last rites, which may not have been observed before the young noble’s untimely death. The carefully marked details actualize a ritual indispensable for the salvation of his soul. The article also elucidates the little-known role played by Arthur Kingsley Porter — probable victim of another premature death — in the Spanish monument’s clandestine and controversial appearance in the United States.","PeriodicalId":44046,"journal":{"name":"WORD & IMAGE","volume":"6 1","pages":"323 - 336"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90855076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
