Harmless Woman 1969

"Harmless Woman" is a bronze sculpture created in 1969 by Louise Bourgeois, a prominent figure in feminist art. The sculpture depicts a female figure with an exaggerated, almost phallic, nose, emphasizing a distorted and abstracted form. Bourgeois's work often explored themes of the body, sexuality, and the subconscious, and "Harmless Woman" is a prime example of this exploration, provoking viewers to confront the complexities of gender and identity.
