Recepción y legado de Gustav Klimt en el norte de Italia

Abstract

No European country devoted to Klimt the attention he received in Italy. Widely represented at the 1910 Biennale and at the International Exhibition in Rome in 1911, his work influenced artists in the north of the country and in the irredentist territories that transcribed his laboratory of experiences both in painting and in other artistic disciplines. The reception of Klimt, through design, furniture, fashion and interior decoration perpetuated, in a more moderate way than at his starting years, modernism and symbolism until the mid-20th century in the transalpine country through Venetian decorative models, the reception in Felice Casorati and the "rebellious" artists of Ca'Pesaro, the Italian-speaking Austrian subjects in Trento and Trieste and the sculpture and graphics of Adolfo Wildt.
