Abstract (en)

American sculptor Bourgeois comments on the sculptures of Gaston Lachaise, and the muse of his art and life, his wife Isabel Dutaud Lachaise. Discusses his fixation on the female body and his powerful, late erotic works, which are seen as reflecting his relationship with this demanding woman.
