Description
Upon entering the garden gates of the Alberto Sampaio Museum, visitors are immediately transported to the enchanting landscapes that inspired the impressionist Claude Monet and the symbolist Gustav Klimt
The experience begins with a tribute to Claude Monet and his beloved Garden of Giverny, with giant floral sculptures lighting up to the sound of Chopin, and accompanying the recitation of the poem “Quando vierer a Primavera” by Alberto Caeiro. After this moment, the façade of the Museum is transformed into a giant canvas, with every detail of the building’s architecture giving life to an artistic reinterpretation of Claude Monet’s Impressionist legacy.
This is followed by an original tribute to the intimacy and romantic art of Gustav Klimt and his “Tree of Life”. To the sound of Ludovico Einaudi, the trees in the garden are lit up while an excerpt from the book “Humus” by Raul Brandão, an essential cultural reference of the city of Guimarães, is recited. This is followed by a journey through the works and life of the Austrian painter, with his most emblematic painting, The Kiss, as the common thread.
The moments of recitation will be narrated by the voice of the actors from Guimarães, Inês Lago and João Ventura.
Let yourself be enchanted by “Art in the Garden: Monet & Klimt” in Guimarães city centre.
