About this Item

Ferrara, Palazzo dei Diamanti, 17 marzo - 16 giugno 1996.A cura di Beatrice Buscaroli Fabbri.Ferrara, 1996; br., pp. 348, ill. b/n, 50 tavv. col. num. n.t., cm 23x30. Ferrara Arte in collaboration with the Leipzig Museum of Fine Arts organizes the most important exhibition ever in Italy about Max Klinger, a founder of the Simbolism.The interest of Ferrara for the work of the famous German artist, born on 1857 and dead in 1920, is not by chance. Indeed Klinger was, together with Arnold Böcklin, one of the maestros who led Giorgio de Chirico toward the Metaphysics, which had an important center in Ferrara in the second half of the 1910s.Paintings and sculptures, drawings and engravings: more than 400 works for reconstructing the whole path of this father of the symbolic art, considered the "the most important engraver of the XX century". From the Museum of Fine Art of Leipzig arrives the entire engraving opus, a wide selection of drawings, paintings and sculptures that, for the first time, leave the Germany. Other masterworks come from other German museums while from Florence (the Villa Romana that Klinger bought and in which he lived during his often stays in Italy) comes the beautiful Mermaid, chosen as logo for the exhibition.Max Klinger loved very much music and musicians: he played piano and was friend of Max Reger and Brahms, for whom he made the Brahmsphantasie etchings. This is why Ferrara Musica has organized a series of concerts dedicated to the relationship between Klinger and music, two of which will be led by Claudio Abbado with the Berlinen Philarmoniker and the Chamber Orchestra of EuropeSommario Presentazioni Roberto Soffritti - Sindaco di Ferrara - Paolo Siconolfi XI Presidente della Provincia di FerraraXIII Claudio Abbado - Presidente Onorario di Ferrara Musica XV Andrea Buzzoni - Direttore Civiche Gallerie d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea del Comune di Ferrara XVII Herwig Guratzsch - Direttore del Museum der bildenden Knste di Lipsia XIX Joachim Burmeister - Direttore di Villa Romana, FirenzeSaggi e schede 3 Max Klinger, l'Italia e l'altrove dei sogni e dei suoni Beatrice Buscaroli Fabbri 49 Klinger e i "tedeschi-romani" Marisa Volpi 79 Max Klinger pittore e scultore Renate Hartleb 123 Schede dei dipinti e delle sculture Renate Hartleb 137 L'artista figurativo come poeta: la grafica di Max Klinger Andreas Stolzenburg 169 Schede delle incisioni in serie Susanne Petri 257 Schede dei fogli singoli di incisioni Susanne Petri 269 Schede dei disegni Karl-Heinz Mehnert 293 "Tutte le arti sono simili e parlano la stessa lingua."
