The world's largest collection of works by Klimt, owned by Gallery Belvedere will be presented in a special commemorative exhibition on the 150th anniversary of the artist. We already know that hanging paintings will not pursue the objectives to identify some stylistic links or submit a work of art in a certain context, as it was for most exhibitions last year - the future exposition is designed to focus the attention of visitors on each individual work.

A similar problem exhibition of the artist never yet set. Klimt, in fact, for 150 years, became a phenomenon not only in the history of art, but also in the general history of our time. interdisciplinary approach and a selection of items, as well as graphic and multimedia design, no doubt, donesut Klimt art to the viewer on a completely new level.

Another exhibition that will mark the beginning of the year Klimt, is a project that brings together the work of two pioneers of modernism - the architect Gustav Klimt and Josef Hoffmann. Artist and the architect had common views on art, which, in their opinion, should affect all spheres of life. For more than two decades of creative collaboration of varying intensity, both authors were rotated in the same circles, working on orders for the same customers, and in generally were the leading representatives of the Viennese art scene.

together Klimt and Hoffman participated in the exhibition of the Vienna Secession in 1902, devoted to Beethoven, and their joint creation of a famous palace in Brussels Stockley. Both artists have sought to achieve harmony between elegant and decorative art. Through a huge number of paintings, drawings, detailed reconstructions of historical documents and exhibition at the Belvedere will tell about the origin and meaning of collaborative projects Klimt and Hoffmann, as well as appeal to the Belgian art scene, under the influence of which has long been developed Viennese modernism.
