Giacometti - The Late Work
This book is published on the occasion of the exhibition Alberto Giacometti – The Late Work at the Galerie Lympia, the first exhibition dedicated to Alberto Giacometti to be shown in Nice. It does not aim to offer a summary of his oeuvre, but instead a singular gaze at a little-known part, the late period, that of maturity, from 1960 until the artist’s death in 1965.
Conceived around his last models, his wife Annette, brother Diego, friend Caroline and the photographer Eli Lotar, with whom he was close, the exhibition design proposes to throw a spotlight on Alberto Giacometti’s work from a unique perspective, in the privacy of his studio in the Rue Hippolyte-Maindron, in the Paris neighbourhood of Montparnasse, or in his room in the Hôtel de Rive in Geneva, thereby reflecting the artist’s living and creative space.
Sculptures, paintings, drawings and lithographs show the diversity of techniques used by the artist during this decisive period of his career.
