Photo route "with Giacometti on the way"

The Fondazione Centro Giacometti honors Alberto Giacometti on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of his death in 2016 with an extensive photo documentation "I neither understand life nor death." For this purpose, 44 high-quality photographs of Giacometti's last stays in Stampa and of the burial were selected. The photo documentation is complemented by short texts about Giacometti's biography.

The reader thus obtains a photographic impression of the artist's last years in Bergell and can also visit the original locations on a walk between Coltura and Borgonovo. The concept of the publication meets the requirements of an artist's documentation and at the same time a guide. Thanks to an enclosed map, it is possible to find the exact photo locations. The selected pictures trace the path from Coltura via Giacometti's residence in Stampa and further to the cemetery San Giorgio in Borgonovo, where Giacometti was buried on January 15, 1966.
