Louise Bourgeois, Paris View. (1994)

This painting that Bourgeois created just prior to her illustration on the Venice Biennale in 1993. Named after Paris review, which was an arts magazine established in 1953, the artist has converted and reproduced the original drawing on a bigger scale in raise-ground. compelling in her every day drawing practice, many of Bourgeois’ abstract works use the theme of circles, strains and points. This painting is specific in that the artist has added white heavy handed to emphasize the power and concentric motion of the shapes she used.At some point of the lead-up to the biennale, Bourgeois become substantiallyinterviewed, photographed and filmed via the media. She got overwhelmed, the artist described her psychological state at the time: “this is the pomegranate … it's far the movement of twisting and squeezing out of the juice of the pomegranate. All those interviewers squeezed me to exhaustion”. The drift of organic lines and upturned teardrops in Paris review imply to this extracting process. Bourgeois became additionally interested by the ‘Rorschach effect’, the inkblot test devised to analyze personality types and divergent emotional responses in humans.   

 Max Ernst. The forest. (1931) 

Amongst his many memories of early life, Max Ernst frequently mentioned his fear and fascination with a forest that surrounded his home. Therefore, Forests and suns are significant to Ernst’s personal symbolism This dark and mysterious forest scene marks one of the most creative time periods of Ernst's career. Which was the series of Romanticism.Inspired by the Surrealist chief André Breton's proclamation of "pure psychic automatism" as an artistic ideal, he developed the innovative method of frottage, his time period to produce a comfort layout, just like the surface of a piece of wood. Via laying paper or canvas over it and rubbing it with a pencil or some charcoal, In forest and sun, Ernst used this method which coalesced among1925 and 1928 all through 3 critical years of experimentation to create a petrified forest, by means of scraping away almost-dry paint on the canvas (grattage), the artist produced the encircled sun at the center of the composition. Ernst mixed factors of the outside global in unexpected and poetic ways, ensuing in surrealist ‘landscapes of the mind’. This portray belongs to Ernst’s first series of forest and sun images,This painting is certainly one of six variations of the forest and sun theme by Ernst. As in the other five canvases, the tree trunks suggest a letter within the artist's name: in this situation, a capital M.
