“Ticino through the eyes of Ignaz Epper”

As part of Hotel Eden Roc, Casa Epper is a sanctuary of art and tranquillity - the perfect setting for compelling exhibitions in a truly unique atmosphere.

From 6 June to 19 September 2025, in collaboration with the Scuola di Scultura in Peccia, we are proud to present the exhibition „Humankind and Environment", featuring the work of Hans-Peter Profunser.

As the exhibition unfolds, it evolves: new works will be added – created by Profunser’s own students.

A man who transforms sandstone into poetry, Profunser is an award-winning freelance artist and sculptor. He has been active at the Scuola di Scultura since 1999, and since the late 1980s, his work has been featured in over 100 solo and group exhibitions both in Switzerland and abroad.

“People and the Environment” – an exhibition in two lively phases

„Humankind and Environment": Two Phases, One Dialogue

This exhibition is not static – it unfolds over time, offering fresh perspectives and deepening the dialogue as new pieces are introduced.

Featured artists include Armin Böttinger, Heinz Brehm, Klaus Eichler, Thomas Hassler, Randolph Koller, Jürgen Möller, Kurt Müller, Marco Paniz, Yves Portenier, Berit Schmidt-Villnow, Sabine Seum, and Axel Svensson.

In the first phase, „Controversy", the fragile balance between human beings and the natural world is examined. The second phase, "The Destroyer", intensifies the narrative, drawing attention to the threat posed by human actions.

"Landscapes - Ignaz Epper"

Also until June 2025, Casa Epper is presenting a second exhibition of works by Ignaz Epper: “Landscapes”. It includes an exclusive selection of colored and black and white plaster drawings depicting Swiss landscapes from the early 1920s.

These unique pieces, steeped in history and character, tell of Epper's artistic vision with expressive power, between essential lines and material depth. A journey through Switzerland of the past, translated into timeless forms.

Epper’s art was preserved through the efforts of his wife and the creation of the Fondazione Epper. Today, his house, studio and beloved garden offer guests of the Hotel Eden Roc a haven of calm: an unrivalled place for peace and introspection.

The exhibition is open daily from 9am to 5pm and will run until June 2025. For more information, please speak to the concierge desk at the Hotel Eden Roc.
