Yesterday Mrs. M and I met at Shinjuku Station
and went to The National Art Center, Tokyo.
(国立新美術館 at 六本木)



This time we enjoyed Alberto Giacometti's world.
(アルベルト・ジャコメッティ展)





I didn't know anything about him
but got interested in him.

-------------

Giacometti (1901 – 1966) is said to be one of
the most important sculptors in the twentieth century.

The following pictures were allowed to take.







He was seeking after the essential human qualities.
I thought He was a philosopher too.

The exhibition was not so crowded
that we could really enjoy it.

I don't think I did understand Giacometti
but I did enjoy his larger and thinner
sculptures.

Mrs. M and I had a very good day.
Thank you so much, Mrs. M.
