Gustav Klimt. Landschaften

23.10.2002 - 23.02.2003

Belvedere, Wien / Österreich

Meisterwerke aus europäischen und amerikanischen Museen und Privatsammlungen zeigen in nie dagewesener Vollständigkeit Gustav Klimt erstmals ausschließlich als Landschaftsmaler. Die österreichische Galerie Belvedere präsentiert eine Ausstellung, die versucht, die Ursprünge der suggestiven Faszination dieser Werkgruppe zu entdecken. Ein Unternehmen, das aufgrund der Fragilität der Bilder wohl unwiederholbar sein wird.

This exhibition presents Gustav Klimt worldwide for the first time exclusively as a landscape painter with masterpieces from European and American museums and private collections.... During his summer holidays in the Salzkammergut and in Italy, Klimt created paintings which rank among the most significant works in his oeuvre. To this day his landscapes enchant the viewer with their exquisite colours, fascinate due to their boldly cropped views and transport the beholder into a world of total harmony.This exhibition presents Gustav Klimt worldwide for the first time exclusively as a landscape painter with masterpieces from European and American museums and private collections.
