When someone says Giacometti, we think first of Alberto. However, he was not the only artist in the family, which originally came from Bregaglia, a secret alpine valley in Graubünden. This exhibition recreates the local “Bargaiot” environment, taking us through the family of artists, so that we (re)discover Alberto, of course, but also Giovanni, Diego, Bruno and Augusto. Suitable for children aged 7 and over.
