Celebrated as a sculptor, painter and draughtsman, Giacometti’s distinctive elongated figures areÌýsome of the most instantly recognisable works of modern art. This exhibition reasserts Giacometti’s placeÌýalongside the likes of Matisse, Picasso and Degas as one of the great painter-sculptors of the twentieth century. Through unparalleled access to the extraordinary collection and archive of the Fondation Alberto et AnnetteÌýGiacometti, Paris, É«¿Ø´«Ã½â€™s ambitious and wide-ranging exhibition brings together over 250 works. It includes rarely seen plasters and drawings which have never been exhibited before and showcases theÌýfull evolution of Giacometti’s career across five decades, from early works such as Head of a Woman [FloraÌýMayo] 1926 to iconic bronze sculptures such as Walking Man IÌý1960..
I am very interested in art but I am instinctively more interested in truth […] The more I work, the more I see differently
