Giacometti Family is known in Bregaglia, in the south-eastern Swiss Alps, since the 17th century. Family members were involved in cultural fields such as art, architecture, and law. Before that, many ancestors ran cafés and confectioners in many parts of Europe. For example, Silvio Alberto Giacometti, brother of Giovanni
Giacometti and uncle of Alberto, Diego, Bruno Giacometti, had ran a Café and Confectionary Business in Genova.
Giacometti family is known globally known in the world of art, but keeping the legacy of family heritage in Bregaglia may face difficulty as generation changes.
THE CHOCOLÀ, Swiss–Japanese Chocolate Brand which is produced by Werner & Mitsue Rüegsegger, World Renown Chocolatier, collaborate with the Centro Giacometti to create an exclusive single origin bean chocolate bar by utilizing Augusto’s art works for packaging.
As Giacometti family was involved both in art and café, creating an Exclusive Chocolate with Augusto’s artwork will bring more interest and awareness in Giacometti Family Heritage and will support the legacy of the family.
