• A recommendation from @neuegaleriebookstore: The Women of Klimt, Schiele and Kokoschka” by Jane Kallir, Alfred Weidinger, Eric Kandel, and Mateusz Mayer. – In the early 20th century, the traditional relationship between the sexes was challenged by a number of social, economic, and philosophical changes. It was above all the incipient development towards gender equity that provoked vehement counter-arguments. Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, and Oskar Kokoschka―then the three most outstanding painters of Viennese modernism― approached the subject matter generally referred to as the “woman question” from slightly different, albeit overlapping perspectives. The book will present an in-depth exploration of these differences and similarities. – Available in-store and online at shop.neuegalerie.org. – #NeueGalerie #NeueGalerieNY#BookLover #Reading #BookFace#ReadingRecommendation #GustavKlimt #EgonSchiele #OskarKokoschka

  • Happy #ArtMuseumDay! Neue Galerie New York joins hundreds of institutions across North America to celebrate the important role that art museums play in our communities. – Devoted to early twentieth-century German and Austrian art and design, the Neue Galerie explores the special relationship that existed between the fine arts (of Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, Oskar Kokoschka, Richard Gerstl, and Alfred Kubin) and the decorative arts (created at the Wiener Werkstätte by such well-known figures as Josef Hoffmann, Koloman Moser, and Dagobert Peche, and by such celebrated architects as Adolf Loos, Joseph Urban, and Otto Wagner). Two of the principal goals of the museum are to bring a sense of perspective back to Germanic culture of this period, and to make the best of this work available to American and other audiences for both scholarly and aesthetic inquiry. – Special thanks to @Newsweek for recently listing the Neue Galerie as one of the 9 Best Museums in New York City. Tag some of your favorite museums in the comments. – #NeueGalerie #NeueGalerieNY #MuseumLove #InternationalMuseumDay

  • As @robertasmithnyt wrote of Paul Klee's later work: “Large in scale, rougher in line and sometimes considered awkward, they express rage and surprise — feelings often buried in his early work — while summoning an elegance all their own. And “The Sick Heart,” from 1939, is wild, a seldom-seen precursor to Philip Guston, early Peter Saul and Elizabeth Murray. – This painting was presented in From Klimt to Klee: Masterworks from the Serge Sabarsky Collection,” a 2009 exhibition that honored the life and work of Neue Galerie New York co-founder, Serge Sabarsky. – Paul Klee (1879-1940), The Sick Heart (Das kranke Herz), 1939, Watercolor and paste paint on cardboard, nailed mon stretcher, with original strip frame, 40.7 x 54 cm (16 x 21 1/4 in.). Private Collection. @achimmoeller. – #NeueGalerie #NeueGalerieNY #PaulKlee #TBT #MuseumWeek #RainbowMW #NYT
