‘In a fire, between a #Rembrandt and a cat, I would save the #cat’ - Slinking along, with its body in perfect alignment, Alberto #Giacometti’s graceful yet powerful #feline possesses #elegance akin to the artist’s elongated female nudes of the period. The avant-garde #artist was fascinated by the dexterity and anatomical pliancy of the animal, marvelling that ‘a cat is narrow and can pass between two very close objects’ whilst admiring his brother Diego’s cat defying the boundaries of form and space. This poignant image of a cat can be interpreted as a symbolic representation of the artist himself and, in the wider context of the post-war period, as a reflection of the lonely and vulnerable human condition. The artist reduced his #forms, both human and bestial, to their essential #shapes – exploring thematic connotations of stoicism, resilience, passivity, solitude, strength and vulnerability. On view in our #London galleries, ahead of Tuesday’s Impressionist & Modern Art Evening Sale.
