Karin Widmer illustrates Klingsors last Summer
Sala Boccadoro, Montagnola, 17.30

Book presentation

 

In the summer of 2019, exactly a hundred years a er Hesse’s Klingsor’s legendary summer, Karin Widmer wandered through the Ticino landscapes, around lake Lugano, following in the footsteps of Hermann Hesse, with her sketch book and her watercolour case. Her special relationship with Hermann Hesse’s work comes from the fact that she is the poet’s great-granddaughter, and Bruno Hesse’s granddaughter, Hermann Hesse’s eldest son.

 

Prof. Dr. Karl-Josef Kuschel, president of the Internationale Hermann Hesse-Gesellscha , will be giving an introductory lecture on Klingsor’s last Summer, and actor Ernst Süss will read excerpts from the novel.

 

Karin Widmer will discuss about her pictures in a talk with Regina Bucher.

 

In German, admission free, donations welcome.

In collaboration with Deutsche Club Tessin.

“Wonderful magic of the transitory”
Museum Hermann Hesse Montagnola, 17.00

Easter Reading

 

In 1955 seventy- five-year-old Hermann Hesse published excerpts of his diary in the Neue Zürcher Zeitung, where he skilfully interweaves and juxtaposes the past and the present, with delicate humour. How does the mature poet sees the young, wonderfully lively, vivacious, brilliant guy, author, as well as protagonist, of Klingsor’s last Summer? Which youth memories come alive while doing garden work?

 

With Antonio Ballerio (Italian) and Ernst Süss (German)

Musical accompaniment: Elisa Netzer (arp)

 

In Italian and German; admission free, donations welcome
