Augusto Murer Museum
Once crossed the gate, you go through the wonderful rocky garden, decorated by about thirty bronze pieces, before reaching the atelier-museum of Augusto Murer.
The exhibition is held in a building created in 1972 by the architect Giuseppe Davanzo, with its staggered towers, the roofs, and the red skylights. Born in Falcade in 1922, Murer started off his art career in 1945, using the most available raw material on site immediately after the war: wood. Soon he turned his hand to marble, ceramic, and bronze. He was an excellent painter and illustrator, too. The extreme versatility of his genius is displayed on the three floors of the museum, where you can admire more than one hundred sculptures, which retrace Murer’s artistic journey, as well as sacred works, drawings, oil paintings, and art objects. His fame has crossed the Dolomites with exhibitions at Palazzo Diamanti in Ferrara, at the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg and at Palazzo del Senato in Milan.
