Klimt, the Secession and authoritative representative artist of extraordinary importance in the history of modern art in 2012 would have celebrated his 150th birthday.
Milan pays homage to the great Austrian master Gustav Klimt with the exhibition “Drawings around the Beethoven Frieze” set up at the Spazio Oberdan until May 6, 2012.
The exhibition opens with the original posters of the Viennese Secession made among others by Koloman Moser and AlfredRoller, Ferdinand Hodler and Leopold Stolba and some numbers of the famous magazine ”Ver Sacrum”.
The exhibition presents eighteen drawings by Klimt from New York: the heart of the exhibition, the paper investigates the role of women and music through the conflict between Eros and Thanatos, recurring themes in the works of Austrian maestro andfounding core of the Beethoven Frieze, famous fresco conceived as a tribute to the German composer, reproduced in 1:1 scale by a team of designers and decorators. The hostile forces, and This Kiss to the world, second and third parts of the majesticallegory created by Klimt, are spectacularly rebuilt in a room that resonate notes of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony to offer visitorsan experience of total art.
