Business Overview

Alberto Giacometti is an artist who left a great mark on 20 century art history. Although he is well known for his slim-cut plastic images, he also left many portraits. Among the people close to him who served as his model was a Japanese. He is the man who recorded all the intense conversations with Isaku Yanaihara and Giacometti. In this work, the dialogue records left by Isaku are the basis, but the story of a certain father and his son, namely the director NANGUCHI (KIGUCHI) Muneyuki and his father, Keizo KIGUCHI, a Western-style painter over 70 years old, will be superimposed on it.
