It is an immersive exhibition, where huge images are projected from floor to ceiling. The theme is the Viennese art scene at the end of the 19th century, of which Klimt was certainly the main author. In addition, works by his contemporaries are present. On the soundtrack, Wagner, Beethoven, Chopin e Rachmaninov. Therefore, you will probably be thrilled!

Light shows and images projected on the facades of buildings and monuments have become increasingly frequent around the world. In France, some memorable projections have already been shown. In Brazil, even the Copacabana Palace hotel got into the spirit, at the end of the past, and also displayed incredible images on its facade, to the sound of the best Brazilian music, for example.
