On July 1, 2026, the Rimoldi Museum in Cortina d'Ampezzo reopens its doors with an exhibition entirely dedicated to the works of the Collection. The three-floor exhibition is curated by the Museum's Cultural Commission, which also relied on the collaboration of several dedicated volunteers.
The ground floor focuses on the works of Filippo de Pisis, the leading artist of the Rimoldi Collection; the second floor houses the heart of the Museum, featuring great names of the 20th century; and the first floor features a selection of works acquired after the Museum's creation (1974), some consistent with the original core, others belonging to different styles and periods, up to the contemporary.
Over the years, the Museum has received donations that have enriched and completed it, as well as works completely unrelated to the historical corpus. In keeping with the passion that drove the Cortina d'Ampezzo collector to promote artists of varying fame, the Rimoldi Museum continues to thrive with the freedom inherent in art that allows it to engage in a dialogue with itself: a conversation between eras and ideas. Intertwined threads allow the observer to create their own thought journey, one of harmony, divergence, wonder, even bewilderment…
Continuing along the path Rimoldi embarked on, ensuring that the Museum maintains its dynamism and continually engages with other artistic worlds, is the goal that has driven those who have the pleasure and responsibility of caring for it over the years. This intention has inspired not only the rotation of the Collection's works, but also the numerous temporary exhibitions organized in collaboration with various organizations. Thanks to its donors, today this diverse space represents the continuation of a story—hopefully ever-evolving—that began over fifty years ago.
Filippo de Pisis in a Touch of Color
In August 1956, a few months after de Pisis's death, Mario Rimoldi organized a retrospective at the Circolo Artistico featuring 60 of his works: he owned hundreds. In Cortina, it was the first in a series of posthumous tributes to one of the most representative painters at the Rimoldi Museum, which boasts 54 works by the artist. Rimoldi recounts, "... Previously, I had focused on the nineteenth century... my encounter with de Pisis in 1929 opened my eyes. I began to fall in love with the young masters of the twentieth century... I owe de Pisis the refinement of my taste. And I remain forever fond of de Pisis..." (P. Rizzi, Gazzettino, 3 October 1968).
De Pisis's presence in Cortina became a regular occurrence: the surrounding nature and the painter—a man of letters, botanist, and poet—were intertwined in perfect harmony. Enchanted, he painted views, mushrooms, fruit, flowers... Giovanni Comisso recalls: "He extolled the beauty of each flower and explained to me which species it belonged... I realized he was making me discover the beauty of those humble and precise hues that he seemed to see under the magnifying glass."
Culture, creativity, sensitivity: Rimoldi couldn't help but be fascinated. De Pisis's brush, with rapid touches of color, made the simplest subjects poetic; he was drawn to the combination of beauty and transience. The artist perceived and immortalized the moment before it disappeared, and not only in nature: a face marked by age, the shyness of a soldier, the tiredness of a fisherman, the frenzy of a construction site, the atmosphere of a village or a city. The connection with the viewer was immediate.
This is the de Pisis we hope to find in the works of Rimoldi, taking advantage of two anniversaries: 70 years since his death and 130 years since his birth. It will therefore be interesting to linger on those subtle yet powerful signs, capable of creating images. The magic of a thoughtful pictorial synthesis.
Opening hours:
10:30–12:30 - 15:30–19:30
Closed on Mondays except in August, when the museum is open daily.
