“Exhibitions on Screen” film about Klimt and “The Kiss”
Friday, 24 November 2023,    7:30 PM

The Kiss by Gustav Klimt is one of the most recognised and reproduced paintings in the world . Painted in Vienna around 1908, the evocative image of a mysterious couple's embrace has captivated viewers with its mystery, sensuality and dazzling materials ever since it was created. But what lies behind the appeal of the painting – and who was the artist that created it?

Delving into the details of gold, decorative designs, symbolism and simmering erotica, a close study of the painting takes us to a turning point in Viennese history.

From the director of ‘Frida Kahlo’ and ‘Mary Cassatt: Painting the Modern Woman’ comes a powerful, gripping and passionate new film.

Tickets £11 – book at Otley Courthouse
