“ Mi è capitato, qualche tempo fa, di visitare una mostra al Leopold Museum di Vienna; una accanto all’altra, nella stessa sala, comparivano due opere apparentemente simili, anzi una era la citazione dell’altra: la prima era una classica tela di Lucio Fontana, coi “tagli” che l’hanno reso famoso, la seconda una tela di Maurizio Cattelan con tre “tagli” alla maniera di Fontana, due orizzontali e uno diagonale disposti in modo che si potessero leggere come la Z di Zorro – “zorro” in spagnolo significa “volpe”: dunque l’operazione di Cattelan consisteva nel prendere in giro l’arte sedicente autentica e nello smascherarne l’astuzia commerciale. Un amico che mi accompagnava, alla mia osservazione che l’opera di Fontana conservava un’energia (come l’ombra del gesto) che era totalmente assente nella tela di Cattelan, rispose usando un aggettivo che non avevo mai sentito: «l’opera di Cattelan è webbabile, l’altra no». Essere “webbabile”, cioè facilmente trasmissibile nell’ambiente digitale, è dunque una dote precisa per i messaggi che oggi vogliano arrivare a tutti. Quella di Cattelan è un’idea*, la tela di Fontana è un testo prodotto dalla passione di un corpo, non un episodio di guerriglia semiologica. I tagli di Fontana non assomigliano agli stencil di Banksy, dove il coraggio e la deliziosa fantasia inventiva sono esterni al disegno, tutti estrovertiti sull’azione civica; nella tela di Fontana il coraggio è incorporato nell’opera: è come le pennellate grumose di Van Gogh, come le colature di Pollock, come l’irriproducibile vibrazione sui mattoncini della vermeeriana Veduta di Delft, che cambiano luce quando l’osservatore si avvicina. “
* “La cucina di ‘Elle’ è una cucina di idee” scriveva già nel 1957 il Barthes di Miti d’oggi.

Gustav Klimt. On Lake Attersee, 1900 © Leopold Museum, Vienna | Masterpieces of the Collection ... Although several commentators are of the opinion that this lake painting is almost even abstract, it was precisely such radical reduction that enabled Klimt to put to canvas the actual mood evoked by the lake.With short, intense brushstrokes in luminous “Attersee colours”, he creates a soft current which draws one’s gaze to the island in the upper-right corner. This island, which was even found to contain a Roman stone artefact when a new tower was constructed there in 1916, is returned by Klimt back to nature—the painter removes everything manmade from its image. Even the palace Schloss Litzlberg, which is there in reality, is omitted from this painting, as is its dock. The lake is thus rendered as an area of pristine nature which seems to flow out of the painting into infinity. https://www.leopoldmuseum.org/en/leopoldcollection/masterpieces/48 Source: 4eternal-life

On lake Atersee, Gustav Klimt, 1900.
For the time, this landscape was an unusual and courageous depiction of Klimt’s much-loved Attersee. Courageously, the totality of the water surface is rendered here as an almost abstract color composition and encompasses the majority of the painting. With a certain freedom, Klimt depicts the waves as turquoise speckles, which progressively shrink toward the top of the painting and thereby suggest the illusion of depth. The dark tree tops of the island of Litzlberg in the upper-right corner are the only clearly defined objects on the horizon. Of all of his landscape paintings, this is the one where Klimt ventured furthest into abstract art. The unusual turquoise color is reminiscent of contemporaneous pictures by the French Impressionist Claude Monet, but also pays homage to the unique topographical attributes of the Attersee, which features such colors during the morning hours in the summer. Leopold Museum.

Wien, Montag, 25. März 2024
Leopoldmuseum
Unter dem Titel "Wien 1900. Aufbruch in die Moderne" lockt das Leopoldmuseum mit einer neuen Einrichtung der Sammlungspräsentation. Auf drei Etagen werden die Bestände der Moderne dargeboten, die den KernderSammlung ausmachen: Schiele, Klimt, Gerstl, Kolig, Kokoschka etc. Auf jeder Etage macht man einen kleinen Rundgang um den Innenhof. Ich begann auf der Eingangsebene und stieg dann von Etage zu Etage die Treppe hoch. Oben angekommen, fand ich den Ausgangspunkt all dieser Modernismen: Makart und Genossen, von denen sich die Jüngeren so radikal abgesetzt hatten. Es war eine verblüffende Erfahrung, dieser Rückgang in der Zeit, ein eigentlicher Rückfall in eine frühere Ästhetik.
