Alberto Giacometti
10th October, 1901 (Bregaglia, Switzerland) – 11th January, 1966 (Chura, Switzerland)
Alberto Giacometti is exalted in our Torel Avantgarde with one of the Executive category hotel rooms.
In the bedroom, dark tones and geometric shapes prevail.
The dark tones of the room represent anxiety, represented several times in various works of his time, while geometric figures have a double connotation.
The presence of geometric figures on the rug and pillow symbolizes innovation and is also a symbol of their creations, which resemble toys and games.
In turn, the painting, present at the head of the bed, depicts his figurative work. It is possible to observe, in the foreground, Alberto Giacometti; and, in the background, a human figure, like the popular icon of post-war trauma.
On the large headboard of the double bed, there is a large sheet of paper with a design, its texture is identical to the texture of his sculptures.
