Alberto Giacometti - Works, writings, interviews

This monograph explains how, during the rest of his life and through the return of the figure, he will try to exorcise this existential and formal void. How to plastically reconquer the feeling of the presence of being in space. Giacometti tirelessly tried to sublimate the increasingly filiform volume and fix its finiteness in reality. Then the heads and the nudes modeled in the void emerged, in this experience of nothingness that he opposed to his search for the absolute: a complete metaphor for the human condition.
