No Exit 1989 — Fine Art

No Exit 1989 by Louise Bourgeois uses the simple bold signs she often worked in her prints, a closed doorway and a blocked path. The picture keeps a steady tone and shows that pattern as a clear shape against an even field.

The fine art print arrives ready to hang, with a metal hanger fixed to the back that goes straight onto a nail or screw. You do not need to find a frame to put it up. The metal hanger keeps the print flat against the wall once it is set.

It sits on the landing wall where the stairs turn, and from the foot of the stairs you see the closed shape first. From the bedroom door you notice the even tone and the way the sign stays steady in the light.
