    Everyone complaining about the dramatic music. I love it. Sounds like John Cage, which to me makes sense. Avante garde sculptor/artists meets avante garde composer.

      The music matches the artist's work. It's surrealism. And the narration is classic.

  • @curlykipper
    @curlykipper 5 лет назад +34

    Worth watching is the film by Stanley Tucci, 'Last Portrait' - an account of Giacometti painting James Lord's portrait. The film is based on Lord's account of sitting for Giacometti. The studio, as seen here and in other clips, is faithfully reproduced.
    The point I wanted to make about Giacometti's figures is they seem to me to represent the irredeemable suffering of humankind. They are lonely figures in an empty world, they stare out at nothing but the void. When we look at them we are asked to explain our own existance in the world.
    The little I know about art is that much value is to be found in the creative process as in the finished work and I wonder what Giacometti was truly experiencing while he drew, painted and sculpted for often the process of creation can be transcendental as well as illusory (and troublesome and elusive as well.)
    Giacometti, I feel, was struggling to clarify what he saw or how he saw the world. Hence the working and re-working and perhaps knowing deep down that, at the end of the day, nothing can be reconciled in the way we might want them to be.
    Perhaps the biography of Giacometti by James Lord will help me to understand better this very special artist.

      @@aruglaempire2518 While I would agree that all artists are asserting identity whenever they pursue their vocation, some are publicly self-effacing, and create their art due to an inner calling or compulsion, not to satisfy any social demand or expectation. I have a friend, a talented painter and draughtsman, of whom this description is apt--he eschews fame, and always creates his works because he feels called to do so.

      @ Here it is ! I made my best : his way of speaking is far away from usual french, so it is sometimes hard to give a precise sense to his words : I have written what I heard.
      1) « Jusqu’à maintenant, ce que je sais, c’est que si je voudrais faire l’œil comme je le vois, jusqu’à maintenant je n’ai jamais réussi. J’ai jamais réussi en peinture non plus, mais encore moins en sculpture parce que, si vous regardez en face, il n’a pas l’air tellement bombé, il a l’air plutôt d’une forme disons allongée, ovale allongée. Si vous le regarder en profil, il a l’air presque [cannot understand the word]. Alors c’est deux choses contradictoires, complètement, et en réalité c’est bel et bien et large et pointu en même temps. Alors comment voulez-vous faire une chose qui soit en même temps ronde et pointue ? Le problème est presque comme ça, hein. Et par exemple, en face même si vous savez, on croit que si on a de la terre et que je regarde, dans une bonne lumière, je devrais pouvoir faire la courbe de l’œil, la modeler comme je la vois. Mais ça me semble la chose la plus à peu près impossible du monde. Mais impossible pas seulement pour moi, mais pour toujours et pour tout le monde. »
      2) « Ce que je sais c’est que plus j’enlève et plus ça grossit. Mais pourquoi ? Je ne sais pas encore. Parce que le dernier buste que je suis en train de faire, je ne fais qu’enlever et il est euh tellement gros que j’ai l’impression que c’est encore le double d’épaisseur. Donc il faudra enlever, enlever, enlever. Et alors là, je ne sais pas du tout. Là, c’est là où je me perds le plus ! C’est parce que c’est comme si la matière même devenait une illusion. »

    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 that they were far superior to the sculptures of Giacometti which are so embarrassingly bad, and no one really likes them, but art critics have to pretend to because they are obliged to just as they pretend to like de Kooning because 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.
