Alberto Giacometti, the Swiss sculptor and painter, was profoundly influenced by the aftermath of World War II. The war led to a sense of existential angst and disillusionment, which permeated his work, reflecting themes of isolation and the human condition. His sculptures, characterized by elongated figures, symbolize the fragility and vulnerability of humanity in a post-war context. This shift in perspective helped define his distinctive style and solidified his role in modern art.
