The Upper Belvedere Gallery, Vienna holds an exhibition
"Lovis Corinth. Life, a holiday!"
The exhibition will present the work of one of the most prominent and influential representatives of German Impressionism and Modernism, Lovis Corinth (1858-1925).
Corinth is one of the founders of the Munich Secession and together with Walter Leistikov and Max Liebermann became a leading figure and the first chairman of the Berlin Secession. His artwork is like a leap into the modern era. Beginning in the 19th century, he dealt with all the great "isms" of the following decades--from Realism to Impressionism to Expressionism--but never fully committed himself to any of them. Over the centuries, the recognizable pictorial language of his paintings was shaped by his irrepressible vitality.
