‘Of greater artistic importance was the sculpture of a second group that included Alberto Giacometti, Jean Arp, Lipschitz, Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, Picasso, Julio González, and Alexander Calder. Although those sculptors were sometimes in sympathy with surrealist objectives, their aesthetic and intellectual concerns prohibited a more consistent attachment. Their art, derived from visions, * hallucinations, reverie, and memory, might best be called the sculpture of fantasy, Giacometti's “Palace at 4 a.m." (Figure 78),** for example, integrates the artist's vision not in terms of the external public world but in an enigmatic, private language. **Moore's series of “Forms” suggest shapes in the process of forming under the influence of each other and in the medium of space.
