VIENNA
.-The Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna, in cooperation with the Archive of the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Vienna, presents an unusual homage to Ludwig van Beethoven (17701827), the great representative of the First Viennese School. Beethovens popularity remains unbroken, even 250 years after his birth. Beyond the music, his humanistic messages have influenced the history of art and culture. His early deafness shaped his image as a tragic genius.
Beethovens universal and unique reception, the epochal significance of his music but also the perception of his deified persona, create numerous points of entry; high and popular culture, commerce and politics all form an inexhaustible reserve of inspiration and appropriation.
