Opening Open Sesame! Masterpieces from the Foundation of Art, Culture and History

Winterthur patron Bruno Stefanini (*1924) established the Stiftung für Kunst, Kultur und Geschichte (Foundation of Art, Culture and History) in 1980. In the 1950s the founder and collector began purchasing small-format pictures by Robert Zünd. Over decades Stefanini accumulated an impressive collection of some 5,000 artworks that offers an encyclopedic overview of the whole spectrum of artistic creation in Switzerland from the 18th through to the early 20th century.
