Inside Giacometti's Studio - An Intimate Portrait

Eykyn Maclean / October 29 - December 18, 2010

For its inaugural exhibition, Eykyn Maclean is presenting a unique overview of Alberto Giacometti’s artistic achievement. Dating from 1919 to 1965, the works on view – nearly 100 sculptures, paintings and drawings, as well as photographs and documents – have been selected principally from the collection of Giacometti’s heirs. Supplemented by loans from other prestigious collections, a number of the works on view in this scholarly, not-for-sale exhibition have never been exhibited before. Both the exhibition and two publications that accompany it focus on the tiny, cluttered studio behind Montparnasse, where Giacometti spent nearly all of the last four decades of his life (1927-66), ceaselessly pursuing his vision of mankind. The studio is presented in this dramatically designed exhibition as both the mirror and the archive of Giacometti’s work, reflecting and recording significant and intimate insights into the artist’s remarkable creativity. for information tel. 212-772-9425.
