Louise Bourgeois naît à Paris en 1911. Petite, elle aide sa mère dans son atelier de restauration de tapisserie. Mais très vite, sa mère contracte la grippe espagnole et en meurt. Louise, qui avait passé une partie de son enfance à s'occuper de sa maman - qui était aussi sa meilleure amie et sa plus grande admiratrice, est submergée par le deuil.
Alors qu'elle fréquente l'université à Paris, elle devient une peintre et une graveuse de talent. Fernand Léger la repère et l'encourage à se lancer dans la sculpture. En 1945, elle s'installe à New-York avec son mari. Sur le toit de leur appartement, elle crée de grandes silhouettes en bois, ses toutes premières sculptures.
