Gerhard Richter is the most famous living artist in the world. You just have to say that for now. Full stop. You might then continue and row back a little, clarifying that he is one of the most famous, one who sells the most expensive paintings, but then you would have to google how much they sell for. Nor is it important; at least, it is only important to those who can only see the value of something when they know how big it is, how much it weighs and how much it costs. Richter's works can be found all over the world, in Russian dachas, on Arabian yachts, in earthquake-proof cellars, in wooden crates at Sotheby's and of course in the great museums of our time and, of course, in the most exclusive private collections.

Despite that, Gerhard Richter can get by perfectly well without any hyperbole. In a world of the superlative, his work captivates the viewer with its inner, simple and calm strength. He actually looks like that kindly old uncle with white hair who has preserved his health into retirement, who wears a baseball cap and leather wristwatch, a kind of paediatrician character, carrying Haribos, who just likes to go hiking in the Engadin. To spend his holidays, taking a vacation is no longer said for a while now. Some of his works are now on display in St. Moritz.

Richter uses photographs for his figurative paintings. He then ventures into a kind of abstraction that is maybe even more true than the truth on which they were based. This takes us directly to his iconic curtain paintings and colour panels. A tension between the give and take of visual representation and abstraction of that representation is revealed in monumental grey paintings, romantic landscapes, seascapes, cloudscapes and in portraits.

Richter was born in Dresden in 1932 and came to Sils Maria for the first time in 1989. He has remained loyal to the regions of the Upper Engadin over the years to this day. The exhibition, curated by Dieter Schwarz in three locations, the Nietzsche House, the Segantini Museum and Hauser & Wirth St. Moritz, shows Richter's deep connection to the region, its landscapes, lights and colours in over 70 works. These works comprise paintings, overpainted photos, drawings and an object linking the three exhibition venues, which was produced as an edition and can be seen at each of the three venues.

Nevertheless, art is what speaks to us. That will vary from soul to soul, but you have to have a soul for it. You will walk past some of his paintings and they won't speak, and some you will stand in front of for half an hour and sometimes someone will come and stand next to you and it's an intimate moment, as if you're spending that moment together in the bed of that painting. It is unpleasant, and it happens, but it is usually a very lonely and individual experience and after a visit to the museum in company, you can only guess at which paintings might have impressed the other person the most. It is interesting which pictures we respond to because they reflect our inner self, that which cannot be explained without painting it or translating it into music. Richter writes, “If the abstract pictures show my reality, then the landscapes and still lifes show my longing.” That is the composition of his mind, all the complex feelings that make up a person: fears, experiences, desires, memories, associations, hurt, melancholy. People should get to know each other in front of paintings.

1e:T492,

The paintings on display in St. Moritz, are mainly paintings that Richter created from photographs he took while hiking in the Upper Engadin. Landscape paintings, which always fascinated him because of their supposed timelessness. These landscapes show the breadth of Richter's work, its ambiguity, the seductive transfiguration of nature and reflection of its strangeness, until one day you yourself become part of it again, one of many.

A highlight, if that is the appropriate term amidst all the other paintings, is the painting “Waterfall”, from the Winterthur Museum, which clearly traces Richter's exploration of 19th century Romantic painting through to total realism. Somewhat later, the artist painted over some of the Engadin motifs, including depictions of Piz Materdell and Lake Sils, and transformed them into abstract paintings with a melancholy atmosphere that respond to impressions of the landscape and do not betray them. The Nietzsche House mainly shows photographs of snow-covered fir trees, which accompany texts focused on significant historical events by the writer Alexander Kluge in December (Suhrkamp 2010). Just magnificent.

Giovanni Segantini (1858–1899) is considered a significant exponent of Realistic Symbolism and a reformer of Alpine painting at the end of the 19th century. The stateless artist moved from Brianza to Savognin in Oberhalbstein in 1886 and in 1894 to Maloja in the Engadine. While the artist was working on the central panel of the Alpine triptych "Werden–Sein–Vergehen" (Becoming-Being-Passing) on the Schafberg high above Pontresina, he suddenly died.

Trailblazers of modernism Masterpieces such as "Ave Maria bei der Überfahrt" (Ave Maria on the crossing), "Mittag in den Alpen" (Noon in the Alps), and the triptych still inspire musicians, writers, and visual artists today. Along with Gauguin, van Gogh, Cezanne, and Munch, Giovanni Segantini is regarded as a trailblazer of modernism. His paintings speak of human existence in harmony with nature.

The museum as an important cultural institution The Segantini Museum is one of the most important cultural institutions in the Engadine and holds a special status within the Grisons museum landscape. It is one of the most important monographic museums in Switzerland. Due to the unique building, the great collection, and the lively activities, the Segantini Museum is one-of-a-kind and highly attractive to tourists. The annual number of visitors is approximately 25,000.

A monument to walk through The museum, which opened its doors in 1908, was built as a memorial, as a “monument to walk through” for the painter who spent the last five years of his life in the Engadine. As a rotunda, the striking building with the wide dome is based on the pavilion that Giovanni Segantini had planned for his Engadine panorama at the Paris World Exhibition of 1900.

The museum in the Engadine landscape The fact that the museum is embedded in the mountain landscape, which was the artist’s inspiration and what his life revolved around during his final years, also contributes to its attractiveness for visitors from all over the world. In addition to the Alpine triptych and paintings from all of Segantini’s creative periods, a special exhibition and an artistic guest of honour are also featured in the Segantini Museum.

Cost of admission CHF 15.00 / CHF 10.00 / CHF 3.00 Children under 6 years free of charge

The museum is accessible to visitors with disabilities
