Summary
This Breathing House' offers an intimate view of Indian artist Bharti Kher's installation in Sigmund Freud's final home in London. Following a foreword from the museum's director, the essay by Stephanie Rosenthal, Chief Curator of the Hayward Gallery, explores Kher's work, its themes and dialogue with its setting. The essay, separated into enumerated sections, unfolds the vivid and history-laden artworks, interpreting their forms while also leaving room for interpretation. Quotes feature from the artist herself as well as Sigmund and Anna Freud, Gaston Bachelard, Georges Didi-Huberman and Maggie Nelson among others. Replete with installation views as well as detail shots of individual works, the publication reads like a thoughtful measured walk-through of the exhibition itself.
