SEPTEMBER
Viennese Women Fashioning Modernity: Adele-Bloch Bauer, Emilie Flöge, and other Cultural Tastemakers of the Fin-de-Siècle Wed. Sept. 16 at 7:30PM EST
On the cusp of the 20th century, Vienna represented a vibrant and heady metropolis, a city full of contrasts and contradictions as well as the site of tremendous cultural achievements – including a literary and philosophical efflorescence, the advent of Freudian analysis, and an aesthetic revolution that gave birth to the Viennese Secession (led by Austrian painter Gustav Klimt). During this dynamic era, women, like Adele Bloch-Bauer, Emilie Flöge, and Madame d’Ora, exerted an extraordinary force on culture, taste, and even politics. They hosted important gatherings, established studios and ran fashion emporiums, designed (and wore) novel textiles and accessories, and promoted avant-garde art and environments that expressed an ethos of modern living. Together we will explore the world of these remarkable women.
