The Musée jurassien d’art et d’histoire in Delémont presents « COGHUF, peintre du Jura » until Sunday 31 January 2027. This retrospective marks 50 years since the painter’s death.
The story
Coghuf, whose real name was Ernst Stocker, was born near Basel in 1905. He died in 1976.
Who organises it
The retrospective is shared by three museums, the Musée jurassien d’art et d’histoire in Delémont, the Musée jurassien des Arts in Moutier and the Musée de l’Hôtel-Dieu in Porrentruy. Two venues in the Franches-Montagnes also take part.
What to find
More than 170 works are spread across the three museums.
In Delémont, the section « Coghuf sans frontières » focuses on movement. It shows Franches-Montagnes horses, train journeys, still lifes set against « L’atelier » (1945) and bird’s-eye views of the Doubs.
