Robert Redford, the Oscar-winning actor, director and founder of the Sundance Institute, has died aged 89 at his home in Sundance, Utah. This belief in filmmaking as a multidisciplinary pursuit underpinned his founding of the Sundance Institute in 1981. His second wife, the German multimedia artist Sibylle Szaggars Redford, whom he married in 2009, has exhibited internationally in Europe, North America and Asia. Their art collection was extensive and varied, with a particular focus on pieces by Native American artists, as well as noted documentary photography. Yet he was also something else: an artist who never relinquished the struggling painter’s sensibility, even as cinema made him a star.
