Martha Cunz Fonds

Martha Cunz Fonds

The fonds relating to the St. Gallen artist Martha Cunz (1876–1961) was handed over to SIK-ISEA in the 1980s and in early 2000. The papers consist mostly of letters busily exchanged between Martha Cunz and her family while she was in Munich.

Mara Corradini Fonds

Mara Corradini Fonds

This extensive collection of papers left by painter Mara Corradini (1880–1964), who lived in Grisons, includes diaries, notebooks, correspondence, catalogues, newspaper cuttings and photographs. The letters exchanged between Corradini and artist friends all over Europe are especially rewarding. SIK-ISEA acquired the documents between 1991 and 2001 as a gift from her niece Paola Starace.
