Klimt Landscapes

This major exhibition of Gustav Klimt's (1862-1918) idyllic depictions in the landscape genre features significant paintings made while the artist was on his Sommerfrische (summer holiday) in the Austrian countryside. For the last twenty years of his career, Klimt devoted considerable energy to painting landscapes during his summer vacations on the Attersee in the Salzkammergut region of Austria, known for its tranquil lakes. Created purely for his own pleasure, these bucolic scenes became among his most sought-after pictures and were highly coveted by collectors. Most were made in a square format-a reflection of his fascination with photography.
In this video, exhibition curator Janis Staggs brings you through highlights of "Klimt Landscapes," a special exhibition presented at Neue Galerie New York.

Thank you showing us all such a beautiful presentation of beautiful artwork.

YOu very Welcome !

[@TheStockwell]

I live in rural Vermont. I have traveled to Wien/Vienna and set flowers on his grave. I am also an Artist and was married in Wien. If there was a contest to win a trip to see this exhibition, not only would I enter it, I'd cheat to win the trip! Best wishes from Vermont ❄️🍁❄️

Klimt is absolutely mesmerizing. What a treasure, his heritage. If there’s a chance to see his paintings in person at the Belvedere palace in Vienna - well it’s a blessing:)

[@jenniferpeters3702]

Thank you so much for this. Thanks to all of you involved. Brilliant exibition.

[@christinakentart]

Wow, these are incredible! The landscapes feel so joyful and lively. Thank you for making this virtual tour for us, I wish I could see it in person as well!

[@matineesonmainstreet2005]

Very nice show to exhibit. Congratulations!

[@laurenglass4514]

I have enjoyed going to this wonderful gallery. I have never seen the landscapes.

[@hullygullyrio]

Amazing! Thanks for all the hard work and love for art. Best from Uruguay.

[@cchemmes-seeseeart3948]

Thanks for this awesome video. I love the work of Klimt. He is truly one of the greats. I was so curious to hear comment on his landscape paintings, as an artist who is still trying to discern how I want to treat this genre. I love being in nature, & even received answers to prayer to confirm it as a personal direction for my art. It is the practice of art, through the ages, to be inspired by the masters & Klimt is truly an inspiration. I love these landscapes. I've heard it is true, as shown in this video, that all of your art experiences will influence all of your art, even in a different series/ genre. I am so eager to go paint from nature after seeing this.

[@cindycreateforlife]

Thank you for making this video, I love Klimt and to see his different works in one place, with curation, was wonderful! He was ahead of his time and immensely interesting!

[@jaspalsjaspals6619]

Really fascinating and interesting to see how he painted such beautiful pictures of Landscape.. Thanks for sharing this beautiful video.. regards

[@incognito3620]

More proof of a traditionally trained artist who found his voice and watch his transition to Abstraction. These need to be seen in person to appreciate his paint and color handling. Klimt breaks so many traditionally acceptable rules of scale, perspective, space, flatness of form, composition and color combination. AND makes his paintings work so beautifully. It is a lesson to painters that painting rules can be broken and wonderful work can still be the result.

[@birgittvanwijk9646]

I am glad you pointed out Klimt’s journey into abstraction. Because of his classical training of anatomical drawings and paintings, the proportions are always correct and pleasing to the eye. One can always tell if an artist learned his craft and built upon it.

[@anthonylemkendorf3114]

Abstraction?

[@incognito3620]

@@anthonylemkendorf3114 Anthony, I need more than one word to understand your response. 😊 .

[@timeenoughforart]

i would love to see that in person. I'm grateful to have seen your video. Your gallery is beautiful.

[@glenncheney906]

I wish I could see this in person. And I wish i could find good images of some landscapes that I could try to paint. I'm in love.

[@patriciarobinson5909]

I know!

[@lisengel2498]

And so Great that the curator shows images and really talks about them - its such a fine and wonderfull exhibition of the beauty of gardens and landscapes - something we all know and immediately recognize and rejoice in and yet something painted in a very special way - I would love to see these paintings in reality. 🙏for this treasure of a video of Klimt Landscape paintings 🎵💚🧡🖤🩶🤍🩵🎶

[@futuristica1710]

This is true art. AI will always be bereft of wisdom and a soul.

[@shengdauniversity]

very cool compositions ... the landscapes are indeed the best ! ! ! !

[@SuzetteGrist]

Very enjoyable ❤

[@kitburns1665]

❤❤❤. Great information about one of my favorite artists. Well done!

[@davidwilliams8405]

In my personal opinion, Klimt's landscapes, especially the ones painted in the latter years of his life, are his best. I guess it's because he painted these masterpieces without a thought to anyone but himself! I hope I'll be able one day to see this exhibition soon, I've only seen a few, at the Leopold in Vienna, which have only whetted my appetite for more.

[@renaissancemaneric8019]

Looks worth seeing in person.

[@ydne]

I don't know if it has been pointed out before, but not that I know of, 4:27 The Rise of Photography and a new devotion to landscapes. In the early days of photography, landscape was a far easier subject to capture on film than a studio model and set-up, which dominated so many earlier canvases. The two forms in co-evolution makes so much sense in so many ways. Thank you for pointing in out.

[@kobaltblau]

Love, Love, Love

[@nohandle508]

Beautiful, thank you!

[@righthorse]

Thank you.

[@thomascreeley867]

I may have to go here rather than my usual favorite, the Met, on my next NYC trip.

[@MTMF.london]

Make it quick. The exhibition ends on 6th May.

I saw the german expressionism show in 2015 and it was beautiful . This looks great too!

[@supremereader7614]

Great video, great pieces, I just wish you gave us a little more time with each work.

Why did Mr Klimt wear a dress ?

[@barrymoore4470]

That was his painter's smock.

[@satanofficial3902]

Fun fact... Austria is named after the ostrich. Österreich is the austrian name for Austria. Ostrich... Österreich... I'm sure that even the simplest among you can see the connection. Fun fact... Austria is also where kangaroos come from. Austria... land of ostriches and kangaroos and koalas and surfing and going walkabout.

[@bewareofpigeons]

I thought it meant East Kingdom... nothing to do with ostriches.😄😄

[@MTMF.london]

Not sure about your claim of kangaroos coming from Austria. They are marsupials indigenous to Australia and New Guinea. They, along with wallabies, Tasmanian devils evolved from a common marsupial ancestor from South America.

[@vq2vx]

Love Klimt but too bad this gallery not only doesn't do any reciprocal museum memberships but their price of even a single admission is unreasonably steep

[@MTMF.london]

It is an independent private museum.

[@SchlachthoffestivalTraunsee]

Emilie Flöge was even cooler than Klimt. good video!

[@mikenino3172]

Boring paintings

What beautifull and a wonderfull expression of joy of the beauty of landscapes. 🙏🖤💚🖤💚🖤

[@mariemorgan7759]

I did not know about this gallery in NYC, thank you for the tour. I adore Klimt's art! 💕🙏

[@katherandefy]

Would be so unbelievble to visit.

[@irmalybrackin4048]

Very beautiful

[@christianbarros1580]

I saw Klimt work in Austria. It was the first time I saw people crying in front of a canvas.

[@jaimealalu8533]

I also saw his paintings at The Belvedere ,in Vienna...first time I saw "Woman in Gold". I have since been at The Neue a few times, going there for the landscapes exhibit.

[@kristine8338]

Exceptional beauty under one roof. 🖼️ 🦚 🖼️

[@GeneSketches]

Thank you for this...Love his work

[@jbphoto360]

Well done

[@hannawagenknecht6378]

Never seen before, thank's so much 😮

[@williamjacobs9065]

I trust you are following other museums e.g. the Norton Simon in Pasadena, CA in having all the works protected behind glass. You want to minimize the possibility of vandalism. Take care of yourself and the Klimt works.

[@coupertinoananda1789]

Thankyou

Beautifully presented exhibition; many thanks for this. Exquisite paintings, and I have learned so much of interest about Klimt and his times, especially during the years prior to WW1, the calm before the storm which brought catastrophe.

[@sylvain_st_pierre_2019]

Magnifique !! Merci pour la présentation. My eyes watered as i was looking at the presentation. I unfortunately cannot go to NY to see it so it is much appreciated that you published this. Auf Wiedersehen.

A safe satellite Gallery in upstate would be incredible. The Neue is just too important.

[@MTMF.london]

What do you mean a "safe" satellite gallery? The Neue Gallerie is an independent private museum and has proper security in place. I don't think its permanent collection is not large enough to split into two separate museums.

[@damienkearns3654]

Danke! 🫶🏻 I absolutely love art history and all the greats but Klimt is one of my favourites. Unmistakable style, moves your emotions and stuns you that such works of beauty could be painstakingly created. Have the XXL TASCHEN book of his lifes work. Get it or see it if you can, its circa £150 for a huge, beautifully detailed book. 🇮🇪 💜
