Bruno Stefanini: Ein Jäger und Sammler mit hohen Idealen

Rate this book
Der Winterthurer Bruno Stefanini (* 1924) brachte es als Secondo im Bauboom der Nachkriegszeit zum Multimillionär. Er sammelte Kunst und Kuriositäten und schuf eine der grössten Privatstiftungen der Schweiz, angetrieben von patriotischen Idealen und einer Sammelleidenschaft, die ihresgleichen sucht. Zuletzt machte seine Stiftung für Kunst, Kultur und Geschichte Schlagzeilen mit einer hochgelobten Ausstellung in Bern und Martigny, aber auch mit Streitigkeiten um Stefaninis Erbe. Er selbst war stets einer der wichtigsten Anker- und Hodler-Sammler, der auf dem Flohmarkt nach Schnäppchen stöberte, ein reicher Immobilienbaron und Schlossherr, der seine Liegenschafften verfallen liess. Dass er auch ein visionärer Unternehmer, ein charismatischer Patron und Lebemann war, blieb der Öffentlichkeit bislang verborgen. Stefanini gilt als Phantom. Dieses aufwendig recherchierte Buch erzählt erstmals seine Geschichte und bietet eine kritische Würdigung seines Lebenswerks in all seinen Facetten.

About the author

A Mexican native, Garcia immigrated with his parents to the suburbs of Chicago in the summer 1993. After learning the English language, Garcia developed a love for the Goosebumps and Fear Street series by R.L Stine. At the age of 14, Garcia was given a personal computer when his school's computer lab upgraded to Macintosh systems, giving Garcia an easier means to craft stories. Years later, he developed a passion for acting and theatre as a whole. As an adult, Garcia had a prolific career as a cake decorator, earning 5 gold medals from Food Network Challenge–a popular baking competition. After years in the competitive baking industry, Garcia headed to the world renown The Second City training center in Chicago and began reigniting his passion for acting and writing. Thanks to his studies at the center, Garcia went on to write, produce and direct his own works at his local community theatre. In 2018 Garcia moved to sunny Florida, where he lives with his husband and two spoiled lap dogs. Thanks to the isolation of not knowing anyone in a new city, Garcia began writing what he was experiencing, which would shape the final outcome of his series, The Raven's Conjuring.
