Lei qui,
ed io
con il silenzio in mano.
Tutto da gustare.

The last lines of Piroddi's poem refer to the title of the exhibition: Lei era qui (German: She was here). The exhibited series of works Solidity of Instability thematizes the disappearance of nature and our delayed, often distanced view of it. Piroddi's sculptures show idiosyncratic combinations of materials in which the natural is interwoven with the artificial. The origin and degree of processing of these materials remain undetermined – as does the extent to which they are alienated from their originality.
With the virtual extension in the outdoor space – regardless of location – visitors once again encounter the sculptures in a hybrid setting. The interweaving of the real environment and plastic reveals new dimensions of the repression of the natural. In this superimposed reality, a further, experiential imagery emerges.

Marco Piroddi (1984, Zizers GR), grew up in Sardinia, currently lives in Zizers and works in Chur. After training as a chef, he turned intensively to art. He works in the fields of painting, sculpture and digital media. The forms are often created in dialogue with the material itself. He explores the boundary between the visible and the invisible. In doing so, he refers in particular to postmodernism and the philosophy of Byung-Chul Hans Undinge (2021), which emphasizes the need to recognize the fragmentation of the self caused by the modern world and its flood of information. For Piroddi, the dissolution of boundaries does not mean a rupture, but a gentle dissolution of the margins – an invitation to openness, in which the work does not determine, but asks.

The exhibition by Diego Giacometti (1902-1985) is designed as a large and comprehensive retrospective dedicated to an artist who skilfully moved between applied works and free art.
If Diego Giacometti has always been presented in relation to his famous brother Alberto ("Diego steps out of the shadows"; "The Other Giacometti"), the exhibition claims to pay tribute to the artist's work as an independent work. What is known is that Diego Giacometti's success story only begins after Alberto's death. The exhibition makes it clear that his artistic beginnings lie much earlier. For the first time, works by the artist can be shown that were previously largely unknown and laid the basis for later work.
The exhibition extends over both buildings of the Bündner Kunstmuseum and takes into account the different perspectives of this work in its layout: In the Villa Planta, a former private house, the objects appear as furniture in the context of the Graubünden art collection with works by his father Giovanni Giacometti and his brother Alberto Giacometti; in the extension building, on the other hand, the focus is on the work process and numerous models are on display. In addition, the exhibition provides a comprehensive insight into Diego Giacometti's wealth of forms and motifs, which forms the basis of his artistic work.

The exhibition was created in close collaboration with the "Musée des arts décoratifs" in Paris. The artist Vaclav Pozarek (*1940), who has already appeared several times with innovative and specific forms of presentation, has been won over for the design of the exhibition.

Registration via the homepage www.buendner-kunstmuseum.gr.ch/ is required.

Chiseled from the granite of the Graubünden mountains, rock-strong song creations by the Chur pop band "Stone Age Teenies" can be heard, which not only roll the rocks, but also light up every campfire.
Ted Ling (keyboards/vocals), Mario Giovanoli (bass/vocals/flute/sax) and Rico Wiget behind the drums give their all, and the warm voice of frontwoman Natalia Salamin melts away the ice age.
Mainly original compositions are performed, but also sporadically interspersed, legendary megahits of the 1968s in pop, rock, jazz and blues grooves are kept alive.
This free event for passers-by and enthusiasts has been taking place every year for a good 25 years.
