All the sculptures of today, like those of the past, will end one day in pieces... So it is important to fashion ones work carefully in its smallest recess and charge every particle of matter with life.Alberto Giacometti
Select Alberto Giacometti Quotations
When you look at art made by other people, you see what you need to see in it.
Alberto Giacometti
Only reality interests me now and I know I could spend the rest of my life in copying a chair.
Alberto Giacometti
That's the terrible thing: the more one works on a picture, the more impossible it becomes to finish it.
Alberto Giacometti
It is impossible to do a thing the way I see it because the closer I get the more differently I see.
Alberto Giacometti
The older I grow, the more I find myself alone.
Alberto Giacometti
It was always disappointing to see that what I could really master in terms of form boiled down to so little.
Alberto Giacometti
In every work of art the subject is primordial, whether the artist knows it or not. The measure of the formal qualities is only a sign of the measure of the artist's obsession with his subject; the form is always in proportion to the obsession.
