My hand drawn rendering of Alberto Giacometti (1901-1966) sculptor, painter, draftsman and printmaker. helped revolutionize representational sculpture with his elongated human forms. He is best known for his human figures. Although he also worked with painting and drawing and designed decorative objects, Alberto Giacometti (Swiss Sculptor) is most famous for his sculptures, particularly his figures The artist drew on the influences of Cubism, Surrealism, and African sculpture as he moved away from realistic constructions of the body and towards mythic, totemic bronzes.
