Alberto Giacometti is widely considered to be the greatest of contemporary sculptors, and one of the finest living painters. Born in Switzerland in 1901, he has lived in Paris since 1922. In the early 1930s he was a leading Surrealist. then stopped exhibiting for fourteen years. emerging as creator of figures and heads notorious for their attenuated proportions. Next month Giacometti is having a large retrospective exhibition of his work at the Tate Gallery.
