The immersive exhibition titled the “Klimt Experience” features over a hundred works by Gustav Klimt from different periods. Breathing new life into the paintings by combining music and animation, the exhibit invites visitors to explore the artist’s masterpieces via multimedia.
Revered as a “master of gold,” Gustav Klimt is one of the greatest painters in the 20th century. Born in Vienna, Austria, he singlehandedly founded the Vienna Secession, introducing a new style into the artistic circle at the time. Klimt’s pictorial motifs often revolve around eroticism, eternal cycles of growth and decay and the triumph of life and power. His works invite viewers to reflect upon the value and existence of life while drifting in a world of brilliance and beauty.
The highlight of Klimt’s artistic career is the “Golden Phase,” in which he used a large amount of gold and silver foil in his artworks, and deployed mosaic, symbolism and rich decorations to demonstrate his unique creativity. His signature pieces included “The Kiss,” “The Tree of Life,” “Judith” and “Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer” etc. All of these works are featured in this immersive exhibition, enabling visitors to appreciate the works in a different audio and visual light.

Most harpsichords at the time had 60 keys—covering five octaves, with each octave comprising seven white keys and five black keys. That’s why the earliest pianos also had 60 keys. The white keys on a piano are called natural keys and correspond to the musical
