On the occasion of the major Gustav Klimt in the mark of Hoffmann and the Secession exhibition celebrating in Italy the 150th anniversary of Gustav Klimt’s birth and held at the Museo Correr, the International Gallery of Modern Art Ca’ Pesaro will be presenting an exhibition dedicated to the influence of the great painting on Italian art in the early 20th century, culminating with the 1910 Venice Biennale, at which Klimt was present with a room to himself. The exhibition at Ca’ Pesaro, which presents one of Klimt’s greatest masterpieces, the well-known Judith, dating from 1910, will focus on the presentation of two important decorative cycles that were much influenced by the presence of the Austrian artist in Venice in 1910: Vittorio Zecchin’s Le mille e una notte and Galileo Chini’s Primavera.
