{"product_id":"alberto-giacometti-a-biography","title":"Alberto Giacometti: A Biography","description":"An  insightful  and  comprehensive  biography  of   the   great   twentieth   century   sculptor   Alberto    Giacometti.\n\nAlberto  Giacometti  was  one  of  the  most   enigmatic and memorable personalities of the  twentieth century. Born in Switzerland in 1901,  he settled in Paris in 1922 where he lived and  worked for the rest of his life. Giacometti's early  influences included his father-painter Giovanni  Giacometti-sculptor Antoine  Bourdelle,  and mentors Zadkine, Lipchitz, and Laurens.  When he turned from cubism to surrealism, his  work earned near-instantaneous recognition,  but Giacometti quickly moved on, pioneering  a solitary path on the margin of contemporary  trends.  Today, his signature elongated sculptures  are icons of art history.\n\nThe  fruit  of  new  research,  this  riveting   biography offers a chronological look at the  whole of the artist's life and work. It is published  in coordination with the Giacometti exhibition at  the Guggenheim in New York (June 8 - September  16, 2018).","brand":"Flammarion S.A.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42665126494244,"sku":"9782080203793","price":65.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/9734\/0196\/files\/9782080203793.jpg?v=1777359692","url":"https:\/\/thamesandhudson.com.au\/products\/alberto-giacometti-a-biography","provider":"Thames \u0026 Hudson Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
