It was well into the detailed design of the project
that, at an alcohol-inspired brain-storming session
off Times Square in 1962, we decided on the name
Fun Palace for our short-life conglomerate of
disparate, free-choice, free-time, voluntary
activities, planned as a public launching-pad
rather than a Mecca for East London.

"In line with the kind of spontaneous creativity
favored by Surrealism, Giacometti claimed that
The Palace at 4 a.m. (1932) appeared in its
finished form before his inner eye and was quickly
realized, only then revealing to the artist images,
impressions, and experiences that profoundly
affected him. According to the artist, the
sculpture represents a time when he and a woman
nightly tried to build a palace out of matchsticks,
which collapsed at the slightest movement.

Giacometti identifies the spinal column to the
right as the woman, the standing figure to the left
as his mother as she appeared to him as a child,
and the phallic object toward the center as
himself. In one of two drawings made of his studio
in 1932, The Palace at 4 a.m. is depicted in the
center of the room in detail and with a clear
precision. The drawings themselves amount to an
inventory of Giacometti's production to that date.
