The Kunsthaus Zürich (Switzerland) presents the first showing of works from the bequest of Bruno Giacometti (1907-2012), consisting primarily of more than 250 pieces by his brother Alberto and father Giovanni. There will also be a special presentation featuring sculptures and paintings from the Alberto Giacometti Foundation, revealing where and how these works will be exhibited in the Kunsthaus from 2017, and a chance to see the first results of the multi-year project to restore the Giacometti plasters.
A selection of key works by Alberto Giacometti will also be on show, with paintings from his mature period complementing exceptional sculptures such as L’Homme qui marche from 1947 and Le chariot from 1950. The three-part special presentation offers an in-depth insight into the oeuvre of the Giacometti family of artists, of which the Kunsthaus Zürich holds a collection of unparalleled size and quality.

Location: Kunsthaus Zürich, Heimplatz 1, CH-8001 Zurich. Switzerland
