"This is the fragility of life as all of us have experienced it, painfully, pathetically, and inexorably. It may be true that Giacometti has used an armature that appears as brittle as a burnt twig, yet he has managed to invest his Falling Man with such heroism that his fall is as graceful as a dance. It might even seem possible, should one believe it for a second and hold out the slimmest thread of hope, that this man is about to fly, to ascend on the most tenuous of wings."
