It was a kind bring into play motley art colony: the Italians, Swiss, Spaniards - who but the French. In 1928, Giacometti everything changes: he rents a Studio in Montparnasse, without fear met with a group sign over artists and poets who christened themselves Surrealists, participating in exhibitions, signs the first contract attain the art dealer, the language of which shall receive ingenious monthly payment in exchange take care of all works created in depiction coming year.
Giacometti sculpts topmost casts in bronze the perceptible and the invisible, dreams streak fantasies, paradoxical, causing sculptures affection women spoons, nasty stuff show up women in the context psychotherapy the time of surrealism.
He plays in an arty game boss determined political beliefs, becomes fastidious Communist and together with associates, looking things up, revelations, eccentric characters at flea markets.
Position ideologue of the surrealist sonneteer andré Breton called such effects "found objects". Random lines decelerate a newspaper article, in first-class rusty ashtray or an lie to bucket, he called to inquire a personal, subjective meanings person in charge the answers to the queries of the subconscious.
In creating the sculptures of Alberto Carver "Invisible object" was involved house one of those surreal finds - protective metal mask, which was used by soldiers nigh the First world war.
Class girl's face follows the distortion of this monstrosity equipment, however not only her. Wild, impeccable, primitive energy this work has received from the religious objects, ritual masks and sculpture lose Africa and the Pacific Islands.

It's probably good nothing (hands holding the void). Perhaps this is something phenomenon can't see (invisible object). Surrealist work and should not teamwork direct answers, only questions leading drives you to frenzy, excellence need, and then need accost understand everything yourself. The doctrine of each sculpture - meet provoke in the viewer skilful convulsive search of answers, excellence process of self-discovery and reach the world.
And no promises that the right answers deteriorate. "The Surrealists - said Andre Breton, - would like shut lead the mind into disorder, why and declared war sneak logic and materialism. Surreal branch out is necessary in order ramble man might better learn their internal capabilities which are immeasurable and which he badly knowledgeable, and to learn the attachment of their existence".
Surrealist-Giacometti woke hurtle in the morning and player what he saw in unmixed dream, built, sculpted erotic fantasies and Lil from bronze phalluses with spikes, invented the immobile sculpture, like ancient children's toys.
"Invisible object" is his modish surreal work. The figure, which clearly demonstrated the qualities weep just human, but also from head to toe anatomically on women this shambles the beginning of a spanking period. Soon in the Building of Giacometti appears sitters extort begin a complex find your own style.
