Seduction - Max Klinger
Considered the father of modern print in Germany. Max Klinger was born in Leipzig in 1857 and died in 1920. In his paintings, sculptures and drawings, shows the power of symbolism and the domain of the mixture of different techniques.
His influences include Menzel and Goya. But when around 1900 known Arnold Böcklin, his work is substantially influenced by it. Klinger was also famous and questioned by his famous series of prints entitled " Paraphrase on the discovery of a glove ", which is submerged in the unconscious field, representing shades of fears and desires, giving rise to novel psychoanalytic interpretations.
But it is true, Klinger has that special, when we see one of his works, we remember one of those dreams that we had some night and it is impossible to erase from our memory for the bizarre, shadowy, unreal , and alluring than it seemed; a dream that more attempts to do, no explanation and we found him yet, in ourselves, we know that it is a precious and delicate part of our own world. In other words, Klinger shows us a world chimeric secured with thin threads into reality.
In "Seduction," German in our eyes a fantasy of pleasure in the waves of a dark ocean. The lovers embrace of colossal nude mounted on aquatic creatures. The world of dreams and captures the depths of the viewer's vision, superimposed on the ordinary world, visible in the concavity formed by the wave frothy. Underwater lovers there seem alien or separate from this reality, embracing each his one real universe.
How to express the fantasy that struggles to emerge from ourselves and concatenated with the observable and objective that captures our senses? Klinger made it through his work. "I live in me and I wander in the reflections of my eyes light gas-mirror-people." The artist wrote in his diary, to give us an idea of \u200b\u200bthe connection between these two aspects through his work.
