Klimt/Schiele review: Protégé steals the show in tale of two great Austrian artists
Matthew Collings | Evening Standard | 31st October 2018
A head to head of Viennese modernism. Klimt was older and established, a mentor to Schiele. He produced ravishing female images that are all beautiful, flowing curves. In contrast, Schiele’s drawings are angular, gaunt, “unremittingly electric” His images, in particular, raise difficult gender issues. Nonetheless they are “amazing paintings of human existence.”
