<em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alberto_Giacometti#Early_life">In 1922 he moved to Paris</a> to study under the sculptor Antoine Bourdelle, an associate of Auguste Rodin. It was there that Giacometti experimented with cubism and surrealism and came to be regarded as one of the leading surrealist sculptors. Among his associates were Joan Miró, Max Ernst, Pablo Picasso, Bror Hjorth and Balthus.</em>comment:www.metafilter.com,2011:site.109994-4056886Thu, 01 Dec 2011 19:37:27 -0800TrurlBy: Daddy-O

Ahhhhhh. Maybe I'm just tired. It seemed to read like a riddle. With the 1958 and whatnot.comment:www.metafilter.com,2011:site.109994-4056932Thu, 01 Dec 2011 20:42:23 -0800Senor CardgageBy: adamvasco

<i> a beautiful, distinguished and mysterious woman arrived at the door of ... Alberto Giacometti</i>
Was she eight feet tall with a tiny head and enormous legs and feet? Because if so that would explain a lot.comment:www.metafilter.com,2011:site.109994-4057400Fri, 02 Dec 2011 07:15:16 -0800GrangousierBy: dancestoblue

¡°Why?¡± asked Larry, in his practical way. "Sergeant," admonished the Lieutenant, "you mustn't use such language to your men." "Yes," accorded Shorty; "we'll git some rations from camp by this evenin'. Cap will look out for that. Meanwhile, I'll take out two or three o' the boys on a scout into the country, to see if we can't pick up something to eat." Marvor, however, didn't seem satisfied. "The masters always speak truth," he said. "Is this what you tell me?" MRS. B.: Why are they let, then? My song is short. I am near the dead. So Albert's letter remained unanswered¡ªCaro felt that Reuben was unjust. She had grown very critical of him lately, and a smarting dislike coloured her [Pg 337]judgments. After all, it was he who had driven everybody to whatever it was that had disgraced him. He was to blame for Robert's theft, for Albert's treachery, for Richard's base dependence on the Bardons, for George's death, for Benjamin's disappearance, for Tilly's marriage, for Rose's elopement¡ªit was a heavy load, but Caro put the whole of it on Reuben's shoulders, and added, moreover, the tragedy of her own warped life. He was a tyrant, who sucked his children's blood, and cursed them when they succeeded in breaking free. "Tell my lord," said Calverley, "I will attend him instantly." HoME²Ô¾®¿Õ·¬ºÅѸÀ×Á´½Ó
