EXHIBITION ON SCREEN : KLIMT AND THE KISS

Directed by Ali Ray

The Kiss by Gustav Klimt is one of the most recognized and reproduced paintings in the world.

Painted in Vienna around 1908, the evocative image of couple embracing has captivated viewers with its mystery, sensuality and dazzling materials. But just what lies behind the appeal of the painting – and who was the artist that created it?

Delving into the details of real gold, decorative designs, symbolism and simmering erotica, a close study of the painting takes us to the remarkable turn-of-the-century Vienna when a new world was battling with the old. From the director of ‘Frida Kahlo’ and ‘Mary Cassatt – Painting the Modern Woman’ comes a powerful, gripping and passionate new film.

Don’t miss the opportunity to see Klimt’s magnificent work, and the story behind it, on the big screen here at The Flavel, brought to you by the producers of ‘Vermeer: The Greatest Exhibition’.
