Klimt

And the kiss under his brush is bitter, not happy.

This is sad, not warm, but it is a nostalgic kiss.

The kiss in the film is full of French romance, soft and delicate, warm and lingering, which contains the most sticky part of love and is also the best sustenance for couples to express their love.

The artist invited 100 many sweet couples, and they all had their own stories. It is not difficult to see that the same kiss has different body language and expressions to convey. In the eyes of people with different identities, the expression of "kiss" is full of diversity.

Today's hero's kiss on the canvas is intoxicating. As mentioned at the beginning, it is bitter, unhappy, sad and not warm, which makes people lament the shortness of time and the illusion of love.

I believe everyone is no stranger to this Vienna separatist painter. Gustav klimt is loved by the world for his gold and erotic works. The bold and free use of various plane decorative patterns has formed a strong golden visual style with oriental color and mysterious artistic conception.

Kiss is Klimt's most emotional masterpiece of kissing, and "Kiss" is an important theme in Klimt's works. The love symbolized behind The Kiss is Klimt's way to reconcile mankind with the world and mankind.

In the creation of "Kiss of Golden Happiness in the Century", men and women kneeling in the garden and hugging each other are wrapped in golden light in the twilight, and their gestures are moving. In the painting, a man's gentle hand caresses a woman's face. A woman holds her neck in one hand and holds a man's hand in the other. However, her face turned away from the canvas and hugged the man. You can imagine what kind of emotion this is. There is no heavy three-dimensional expression dynamic, but the kind of slowly fermented temperature rise, which is compressed in one-dimensional plane space. I don't know when, the faint sadness emanates from the golden mottle, and with the mysterious symbols on the clothes, it seems to reveal the repressed desire of the painter.

Among Klimt's many "kisses", this painting has the richest creative feeling. It contains Klimt's strong sentimental creative mood, which is related to his feelings.

This unforgettable feeling for him is related to the complex feelings of Emily, his spiritual partner who has never been together in his life. This golden and erotic work makes people feel Klimt-style tenderness. This may be the only self-portrait in his life. The woman in the picture is his lifelong lover Emily? Emily Wlach.

Klimt's younger brother Ernst married a daughter of the Flora family, and Klimt met Emily, the youngest sister in the family 12 years older than him. When Ernst and his father died one after another, Klimt shouldered the responsibility of taking care of the whole family. Mature Klimt has an unshakable position in the new art world. For young Emily, his identity is like a father. In addition to her lover, she also has a heroic reverence for him, and their friendship continues in this mode.

Emily, like Klimt, is a participant in the separatist movement and runs her own clothing store in Vienna. Whether for work or leisure, he always wears a nightgown designed by himself, while she wears an elegant semi-transparent checkered dress, which is the perfect combination of separatist style and the progressive requirements of "fashion innovation". She has known Klimt for a long time. Every summer, they spend romantic time together in Artes. She is Klimt's lifelong friend and companion, and the only one willing to be buried with Klimt.

In the past 20 years, Klimt has written hundreds of postcards to her, sharing details of his daily life with Emily, about going to the theater, the weather, traveling, canceling French classes, complaining about his hangover, or just telling her when he will come back.

These fragments of their love are collected in Leopold Museum, which shows more about Klimt's emotional creation. In Klimt: Walking into the Man, 400 postcards sent by Klimt to Emily are presented, and Emily is the heroine depicted in Kiss.

For artists who don't talk much, these letters are the testimony of their lifelong companionship and daily closeness. Among the seven discovered love letters recently published by the Beauty Palace, Klimt called Emily "my baby, my life" and wrote a poem to show that his love is unrequited love. We may never know Emily's answer, because she burned all the replies.

Since we love each other deeply, why not get married? What is even more puzzling is that Klimt always seeks sensory satisfaction from other women and takes it as the source of painting.

Maybe he is full of expectation for love and afraid of losing it, maybe he yearns for each other and can't walk out of his own world, maybe he knows that he can't get positive love from her and dare not try to have everything, maybe ... everything is maybe ...

Klimt may not be able to promise Emily a stable future, but he integrated with her with a kiss. Careful observation of the oval spiral on women's clothes and the long square on men's clothes is full of sexual temptation and complex psychology hidden outside purity.

About Klimt's love life, literature, movies and paintings have all made various attempts, but perhaps because of his reticence, the artist himself left only a few words. Trying to piece together a panorama of feelings through these fragmented sentences may not be as good as appreciating his works carefully.

As he himself said, "If you want to know me, take a closer look at my paintings!"! You will see what I am and what I want to do. "

This song "Kiss" was written in the period of 1907- 1908, which was also a very important "golden age" in his life. He tried to use a lot of gold foil materials to express himself in his creation. His golden and Byzantine paintings are inspired by the mosaic art in Venice and Lavaine. Like Kiss and Judy and Adele? The Portrait of Bloch-Bauer is a masterpiece of this period.

Adler, his other masterpiece? In June 2006, the portrait of Bloch-Bauer changed hands for $654.38+35 billion, which once became the most expensive painting in the world. Even Barbie dolls based on this Bloch-Bauer are sold all over the world. ?

In the picture, the woman is wearing a golden rotating dress with thick black hair. Willow leaves have curved eyebrows, slightly parted lips, bared teeth, blushing face, fair skin, and exquisite jewelry on the neck and arms symbolize a rich family. The solemn sitting posture shows the nobility of status. And slightly melancholy eyes and clenched hands, but also vaguely reveal some women's provocative mind. The love hidden in the fundus is intertwined in the gorgeous visual senses, and behind the golden luster is the initial desire of human nature.

This gorgeous golden woman was written in 1907 by Ferdinand, the richest woman in Austria, at the end of 19. Brock. Portrait painted by Bauer's wife. Klimt's special techniques, such as dripping powder, pasting gold foil and silver foil, show the elegant and noble image of women.

Klimt inherited the tradition of English pre-Raphaelism and French Impressionism in his early years, and later introduced the decorative interest of Assyrian, Greek and Byzantine mosaics into his paintings. His works are changeable in style and full of artistic charm of craft decoration. He emphasized the combination of the surface of contour line and the plane of classical mosaic to create a unique and infectious painting style.

Like this three-year-old Adler? Brock. Mrs. Bauer's oil paintings are world-class famous paintings because of his profound interpretation of human desires hidden under gorgeous decoration. Now this painting, known as the "Mona Lisa of the 20th century", has been praised by Ronald, the eldest son of Estee Lauder Group. s？ In 2006, Lauder bought this collection for $654.38+$35 million, and exhibited it in his private museum, the New Gallery in new york, USA.

The relationship between Klimt and women has always been the focus of world attention. As we all know, except for a few landscape paintings, Klimt painted almost only women, and even if men appeared, they were usually only used as a foil or background.

Many female portraits in his works are nude paintings, posing a thought-provoking erotic posture, emphasizing senses and sex. The women in the picture usually respond directly to the audience's gaze on their bodies without being shy.

The Virgin Mary is now in the Narotti Art Museum in Prague, Czech Republic. In this painting, several women snuggle up to each other. Different from his previous gold works, the paintings here are enriched by single-line flat painting and pattern decoration. The characters snuggle up to each other, overlap and condense together, and the exposed body parts appear full and full of vitality, revealing the essence of life. The colors are bright, intense and full of passion, but the expressions of the characters seem a little cold and gloomy. The contrast of colors and characters year after year shows the anxiety and physical and mental exhaustion of young women as virgins, and also conveys the inevitable mentality in their life experiences.

In addition to female works, Klimt's landscape paintings are also highly sought after by collectors. He used mottled and dripping color block handwriting to freely interweave in a rigorous and simple world. Full of natural vitality, poetic lyricism and sunshine. In the pen of reason and passion, the essence and potential of color have been fully exerted.

Deep and shallow, cold and warm complement each other. The painter chose a complete sunflower in the middle of the picture, and the slightly drooping disk was tightly attached to the dense leaves. The colorful flowers at the bottom are hidden under the sunflower leaves, and the background is a mixture of various flowers. The compact and slightly cold tone sets off the warm and soothing sunflower in front, and the slightly melancholy warmth is his usual painting style.

The beech forest exudes some kind of hot uneasiness and some calm and silent depression. Contradictory psychology is like fallen leaves, the speed of scattering is spinning in the air, and I don't want to fall for a long time.

In the middle scene, the church at the foot of the mountain is densely covered with trees. The color of the main hall at the back is cold and gradually recedes in the shadow. Trees and grey walls on the river bank are faintly reflected. I wonder if it will be sunny tomorrow.

Nowadays, the world can only see the artistic beauty of Klimt through works handed down from generation to generation such as Kiss. "Kiss" hangs in the Bell Ouidir Museum, a grand Baroque palace with the largest collection of Klimt oil paintings in the world. If you are also interested in the separatists in Vienna, you can experience the melancholy romance in The Golden Mystery for yourself.
