Albert Giacometti Sculpture and paintings: Theo. Zimmerman visited Alberto Giacometti's studio on a number of occasions in 1953/54 when painting in Montparnasse, and completed drawings of Alberto and Annette during his time in Paris. Alberto made a drawing of Theo. sitting on a chair during one of his late 50's visits when Theo. also completed other pen drawings of Giacometti similar to the one shown above. In the 1960s Giacometti's health began to fail and in 1963 he underwent an operation for cancer of the stomach which was a success as the cancer did not return. In 1965 he became wery ill with heart disease and chronic bronchitis. Giacometti sadly died in June 1966 in Switzerland. Theo. said, quote: "Alberto Giacometti was truly one of the greatest artists of the 20th century." unquote.
Hans Hartung. (1904-1989) Expressionist painter. Theo. met Hans Hartung in the late 1950's when working in Paris and attended his studio on a regular basis and became very interested in the artists new methods of painting. Hartung had important exhibitions in Paris, Brussels and Germany and he was honoured with the 'Prix Guggenheim' in 1956 and awarded an honorary membership of the Akademie der Künste in Berlin. Also his awards included the Great International Prize for Painting at the Biennale in Venice in 1960. Hans Hartung's memoirs were published in 1976 and his fame became International.. One year later he became a member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris and in 1981 was awarded the Oskar-Kokoschka-Prize of the Republic of Austria.
The late 'Old & New Testament' Bible paintings.
Theo's. late atmospheric and colourful scenes of stories from the Bible, full of colour, poetry and mysticism, include 'The 'exodus' from Egypt'. 'The journeys of 'Moses' and the 'Israelites', including 'Moses and the 'Ten Commandments,' ' Mount Sinai,' 'The Israelites and the parting of the Red Sea,' The destruction of Herods army,' 'Moses and the Israelites at the promised land'. Other paintings are from the 'New Testament', include, 'The Crucifixion of Christ', 'The sermon on the mount', 'The raising of Lazarus', 'The feeding of the five thousand,' etc. The style and colour of these large beautiful works are some of Theo's finest creations.
'People of the night' drawings from Montparnasse. Paris.
The artists works, have a stylized and spiritual feeling about them, as Theo. captures the aura and ambiance of the eternal spirit of people in a portrait or figure drawing.
Theo. said, "The normal visual representation of a person in a photograph or portrait is obsolete, because the body changes every day as we journey through the aging process. I try to create in my paintings the aura and ambiance of the eternal spirit, which is with you throughout your lifetime." The artist's answer to an American onlooker who was watching him work and had remarked that his painting was missing many details, was, " If you want an accurate account of what you are looking at, go and find a photographer. However, I'm sure that you have the intelligence to appreciate an original work of art, then you will need an artist to paint it for you. "
Following three heart attacks and a worsening heart condition in his late retirement years, Theo. ceased painting for quite a long period of time before starting to paint again on a very much reduced scale with his Bible Story series. With a severe heart condition and retired from painting for many years, he would only paint an occasional picture or drawing for a friend or family member who requested a special work. With Theo's reluctance and even refusal to sell his paintings over the years, his works are relatively scarce. All his paintings are signed, inscribed, and bear the important provenance 'Atelier' stamp of the artist.
Fine examples of the artists works are in American and European public and private collections.
