The former Andrea Robbi Museum continues to be dedicated to the work of the painter and draughtsman from Sils. In future, however, exhibitions will focus more on local and regional cultural themes.
Andrea Robbi - Alois Carigiet
This winter the Sils Museum is showing a selection of works by Andrea Robbi (1964- 1945) and Alois Carigiet (1902 - 1985).
While Carigiet, forty years younger, cultivated and developed an idiosyncratic expressionist style of painting, Robbi felt he belonged to the realists or early impressionists such as Corot and Courbet.
Carigiet experienced great success and recognition during his lifetime. Robbi was denied this throughout his life. Although he was considered talented, he refused to be successful.
And yet, or precisely because of these apparent opposites, it will be interesting to experience their works in the same room. They had one thing in common. They preferred the same motifs: landscape, portraits and the rural man.
