Peppiatt stated: "I didn't dare go and knock." But why not? Why couldn't Peppiatt just go and knock on Giacometti's door and talk to him? I was looking at my most recent sculptures and it was obvious thatt hey were far superior to the scupltures of Giacomewtti which are so embarrassingly bad, and no one really likes them, but art critics have to pretend to becuase they are obliged to just as they pretend to lioke de Kooning becuase they are obliged to. I am still waiting for Peppiatt to knock on my door but I don't think he dare knock: but it is his loss, not mine
I do, you wally. The first art book I bought was about Giacometti when I was 17. Now that really took a long time to get to the point. Kinda put me off the artist a bit, the book was far too dense.
i appreciate this video.. so many works i haven't seen before. Cheers!
Thank you!
I’ll rewatch this several times!!
Thank you for your precious doc!!! 💕
It was very detail oriented and impressive explanation about Giacometti's master pieces.
Great video - many thanks for posting
Wonderful Artist RIP. Thank you.
The metaphysical lucidity alone is enough.
This was excellent, and very informative. Thank you.
Comprehensive....and Excellent!
The art is beautiful - the narration like an average 6th form essay

Oh my God, Yes!! (I can't watch it!! and I'm so sad!).
Good informative coverage.
very informative site!! Thanks
1925-1930 figures are directly influenced by African Carving...forms and content which were also nicked by Picasso, Matisse etc.
So what...
I came here from a Helen Frankenthaler video. Like going from watching a nose-picking to a magic show.
A touch harsh, but I know what you mean 😁
@@dansmith4984 sorry. I think I was having a day back then.
@@StephenS-2024 it really made me smile actually. Both are very cool 😎
IN HIS SCULPTURE GIACO WAS PRECEDED BY ""ETRUSCAN
VOTIVE FIGURES"", AND ""AMADEO MODIGLIANI",,LOOK IT UP
Are these discriptions from Giacometti? Or projected descriptions by a wannabe psychologist?

All this ... very depressing.
