Alberto Giacometti, influenced by Egyptian art from a young age, will have his sculptures displayed in the Temple of Dendur at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The exhibition, titled "Giacometti in the Temple of Dendur," features fourteen sculptures on loan from the Fondation Giacometti and aims to present a modern artistic perspective. This exhibition is part of a broader vision for the museum's Tang Wing project, which seeks to revamp its Modern and Contemporary art collection, following previous exhibitions that juxtaposed ancient and contemporary works.
