Gagosian on Madison Avenue’s newest exhibit brings together portraits by Giacometti and Francis Bacon. Isabel and Other Intimate Strangers “explores the enduring fascination of Giacometti and Bacon with the existential challenges and ineffable mysteries of the human figure and psyche, explored throughout their careers in the portraits, or likenesses, that they produced of close friends and family.” Perhaps the most famous of these models was Isabel Rawsthorne.
