These characteristics are represented in our Torel Avantgarde in a Classic room, with a double bed, through the large dark brown leather headboard.
Its classic style is represented in the black and gray carpet, with an equally classic pattern.
In our boutique hotel, in the center of Porto, we pay homage to this Portuguese painter.

About The Artist...
Alberto Giacometti Was A Swiss Sculptor, Painter, Draftsman, And Engraver, Famous For His Sculptures.
As a surrealist in the 1930s, he created truly innovative sculptural forms, which sometimes resembled toys and games. As an existentialist, after the war he led the way in creating a style that epitomized philosophy’s interests in perception, alienation, and anxiety. He is remembered for his figurative work, which helped make the suffering human figure motif a popular symbol of post-war trauma.
Some of his Main Works:
Tall Figure
Spoon Woman
The Palace at 4 AM
Artistic Movements: Expressionism, Contemporary Art, Surrealism, Cubism, Modern Art.
“It is impossible to do a thing the way I see it because the closer I get the more differently I see.” – Alberto Giacometti
