Alberto Giacometti-- inspired by African Art?
Title
Alberto Giacometti-- inspired by African Art?
Description
Apparently a photograph from Life Magazine, showing Alberto Giacometti with a number of his sculptures. In form, they distinctly resemble the African art Alain Locke included in his article, "The Art of Our Ancestors," in the issue of Survey Graphic he guest-edited, titled Harlem: Mecca of the New Negro.
