(Tolling of bells)

(Tolling of bells)

(Tolling of bells)

(Richelmy) o'clock in the night of October 31, 1918,

Egon Schiele died at his home in Vienna.

(Richelmy) is one of the 50 million deaths

infected by the most violent pandemic in history

called Spanish flu.

(Richelmy) Three days before he brought his wife Edith away

and a son of six months that will never be born.

(Richelmy) Egon has portrayed in the last hours of life.

(Richelmy) A Jewish photographer, Martha Fein,

Schiele snaps and immortalizes the next day on his deathbed.

(Tolling of bells)

He was 28 years old.

My same age.

Schiele had dodged the war avoiding the front.

In four years he had already died nearly 10 million people.

(Richelmy) The declaration of war was match right from Vienna in 1914.

A conflict that was closing time.

All that confidence in the economic and social progress,

that trust in science

which was on during the century of the Enlightenment,

It shuts down in the trenches.

(Richelmy) The future is filled with uncertainty and doubt.

The Spanish epidemic will do the rest.

All of this is already in Schiele paintings.

(Richelmy) A Vienna, quell'anno,

to a fatality that instead could have been written by history,

on October 18 he had died the artist Koloman Moser.

(Richelmy) On April 11, the architect Otto Wagner

and earlier this year, on Feb. 6,

Gustav Klimt, the painter of "The Kiss", gold and eros.

(Richelmy) Vienna who had been at the center of European culture for more than a century

He lost the best artists of the new generation.

Those Secession, avant-garde movement

who first played

the uneasiness and restlessness of his time

beginning to tell the human history of the twentieth century.

(Kallir) The sex ratio was changing radically.

In many respects

the changes announced today it right then.

(Cole) show the dark side

and the many dimensions of the human condition.

(Cole) It is important that there is an art space that also reflects this.

They are all dancing on the edge of the volcano,

They are going to fall into it, and the explosion of the First World War.

(Richelmy) "The world in which it was worth living"

"He was sentenced to sunset,"

"Its successor"

"He did not deserve one more respectable citizen."

"He had no sense, therefore, be constant in love,"

"Marry and maybe generate descendants."

The largest Central European country, the Austro-Hungarian Empire,

where the Emperor Franz Joseph

had reigned for 68 years, she was collapsing.

It was the end of the Belle Époque,

Property Habsburg order and tranquility of the Puritan.

Klimt, Schiele and others lead us straight into the new world,

a world that is eroticism and loneliness, which is unrest and disorder.

(TRACK: "CANDIES VIENNESE" OF STRAUSS)

(MUSIC)

(Kallir) Vienna in the early twentieth century

He was very conservative.

He was ending the capitalist industrial revolution.

(Kallir) The Ringstrasse was built as a monument

the financial and imperial success and their excesses,

but at the same time, behind this beautiful golden façade,

everything was disintegrating.

The buildings along the Ringstrasse were monuments to the bourgeoisie,

the trade class.

(Gilliam) are all "neo-something."

(Gilliam) There is the Parliament neoclassical

the Burgtheater in Baroque style,

the university in the Renaissance style.

(Gilliam) The architects, writers, painters did not like.

They seemed false, while they saw the truth.

Just the facade of Building Secession says:

"To every age its art, to art its freedom."

"Each time one's own truth and to art its freedom."

For them, these buildings were lying.

A monumental lie.

The pageantry that wants to hide the changes.

This is the Vienna of the early twentieth century.

On one side is the imperial capital and real,

the other is a modern metropolis with nearly two million inhabitants

and a tram network that runs through the city in expansion.

Musicians, painters, scientists,

Ii meet you everywhere, in cafes or lounges.

Paflavano, read the reviews of exhibitions,

of works, of concerts.

Or maybe they were silent, isolated.

They stayed on the sidelines and listened

as did a young painter, but already very famous,

lonely and magnetic.

His name was Gustav Klimt.

(Weidinger) Gustav Klimt and Vienna are direbbe: "He was a guy tainted"

"He was a nice guy when young, a handsome man."

(Weidinger) But it was a strange one,

this is also a feature of Viennese.

One that he is willingly withdrawn, not very happy in the company.

(Smola) had a certain charisma,

this also depends on his character and his ways.

(Smola) Maybe it was not an appearance elegant, yet rustic.

(Smola) came from the suburbs, from poor family conditions

and he has made a career with a lot of ambition and effort

up to be the most important artist.

But somewhere in him was still this suburban character

and I think that just that made him so sympathetic,

so appealing to the refined Viennese society.

(Demise)

(Richelmy) Klimt seduces with its charm and talent.

(Richelmy) AI of the Belvedere Museum there are the faces of many women

They are made to portray him.

(Richelmy) Class Lord, refined and trendy,

they want a painting and sometimes something more.

(Richelmy) The aristocratic Sonja Knips, wife of a tycoon,

He seems to have had an intimate relationship with the painter.

(Richelmy) is certainly not the only one.

(Richelmy) After his death,

Many argue in court that he had a son by him.

(Richelmy) are fourteen of these paternity suits,

six children will be assessed.

(Richelmy) Klimt is shy, but participates in companies evenings,

where he met the wealthy patrons who support his career,

above all, he attended a sitting area,

where you can find all the intelligentsia of Vienna.

(Richelmy) is the Salon of Berta Zuckerkandl,

Jewish journalist, passionate about art and politics.

(Richelmy) say about her: "She is full of humor, grace and charisma."

(Richelmy) "Enchant your home with happiness."

(Richelmy) By Berta, composers such as Johann Strauss and Gustav Mahler

meet modern artists as well as scientists and biologists.

(Richelmy) Her husband Emil is an important anatomist,

Director of the Medical School of Vienna

and leads to the Salon, which is located above the Café Landtmann,

his colleagues and friends.

The salon gathered people from various sectors.

(Kandel) They put together historians, artists, musicians, composers, writers

They are arguing their interests and the intersections between them.

What an inspiration!

He had a great intellectual impact.

Berta Zuckerkandl said: "In my salon, Vienna comes alive."

(Richelmy) On the streets spreading the notes of the waltz,

while at the Staatsoper, which is still called Opera of the Court,

Gustav Mahler takes office directing the "Lohengrin" by Wagner.

(Richelmy) We meet in cafes, places that are an institution in Vienna.

(Richelmy) The rooms are designed by the best architects,

desserts prepared by the finest maître patissier.

(Richelmy) With them, the cakes into works of art.

(TRACK: "ITEMS OF SPRING OP. 410" OF STRAUSS)

(Richelmy) The writer Stefan Zweig will define the coffee:

"A sort of democratic club,"

"Accessible to all at low cost of a cup of coffee,"

"Where guests can sit for hours discussing, writing,"

"Especially to consume countless newspapers and magazines."

(Richelmy) "We were going for hours every day and nothing escaped us."

(Weidinger) Do not believe the Viennese artists including Klimt,

has read the most important literary works

or scientific treatises on psychoanalysis.

(Weidinger) They knew something,

but in essence it was an encyclopedic knowledge which was trading at the cafe.

In the same years in which a Viennese physician, Sigmund Freud,

He begins to study the laws of the psyche,

Klimt and other young artists break with tradition,

deny the official art

of which they do not share the ideals and style.

They kill their fathers.

(Richelmy) In 1897 founded the Vienna Secession.

That same year Freud wrote a letter to a friend

in which develops for the first time the theory of the Oedipus complex,

instincts hidden in the unconscious of every child

to eliminate the father to replace him.

The fathers react.

Academics, politicians and university

railed against the new works by Klimt.

They are intolerable, obscene.

(Richelmy) He goes on his way.

The sons kill fathers, but still need a lot.

(TRACK: "SYMPHONY No. 3 IN F MAJOR OP. 90" OF BRAHMS)

(Richelmy) AI Kunsthistorisches Museum, built by Emperor Franz Joseph

to expose the extraordinary collection of the Habsburgs

and today one of the most important museums in the world,

a walkway to 10 meters in height

approaching visitors to paintings by Klimt on the staircase ceiling.

(Richelmy) Gustav, at age 28, worked there between 1890 and 1891,

with his brother Ernst and his friend Franz Matsch.

(Richelmy) realizes paintings in his small atelier,

then the door to the museum and places them above the strings and between the columns.

(Richelmy) The cycle tells the art through the ages,

from the Egyptian to the ancient Greek,

Italian art of the fourteenth century to the Renaissance.

(Richelmy) is an exercise in imitation and loyalty.

(Richelmy) Klimt copy objects, styles, poses, with the help of photographs,

so the faces and hands of his characters have a photographic realism,

while the background and the clothes appear decorative,

such as brocade dress

for which he is inspired by the painter Antonio da Fabriano.

(Weidinger) In the Kunsthistorisches Museum images

see very well that Klimt and his friends find themselves at a crossroads,

because now it happens that detach progressively from historicism,

what heavy that they themselves have exercised,

and that gradually pass to Jugendstil.

(Weidinger) is a decisive moment and it also adds gold

Gustav Klimt that in the future will play an important role.

(Richelmy) is the gold that wraps in 1901 "Judith", sensual and cruel.

(Richelmy) Klimt inspired by the decadent painters such as Lovis Corinth.

(Richelmy) The "Salome" of Corinth, mate figure of "Judith"

It is caught in a morbid gesture.

(Richelmy) The hand full of rings

opens the eye of the head of St. John the Baptist,

offered on a plate,

but the star of Klimt is all contemporary.

(Richelmy) Porta hairstyle and a necklace fashionable,

especially he has the personality of the new woman.

(Smola) Gustav Klimt chooses the moment when Judith

He has just severed the head of Holofernes, but the head can not be seen,

He holds it in his hand, but it is hardly visible.

(Smola) What you see is you,

look down at the viewer with eyes half closed,

open mouth, an expression lascivious, highly erotic.

Added to this is that it is half-naked.

(Smola) By the time it was a scandal.

All we know that the men can be aggressive,

but usually do not you think that women are aggressive, murderous.

This is why "Judith and Holofernes"

It is so extraordinary.

The representation of a woman kills a man is upsetting,

but even more shocking it is that you feel erotic pleasure

holding his head in his hands.

Wishes and impulses within us,

even if sometimes we struggle to admit them

and occasionally rise to the surface,

in the form of dreams, slips, neurosis.

But the unconscious speaks a mysterious language.

He has decifrata Sigmund Freud.

(Richelmy) Today for us lie down on the psychoanalyst's couch is normal,

then it was a practical cutting-edge and controversial.

(Richelmy) At the end of 1899

It is published "The Interpretation of Dreams".

The title brings, however, a symbolic date.

Vienna 1900, is the guide for the new time.

With Freud modern man discovers his own irrationality.

(BELL)

(Richelmy) Sigmund Freud had begun as a neurologist,

Soon, however, he was spent in the study of nervous diseases.

(Richelmy) is hit by a patient of his friend Josef Breuer

and together they will release her medical history

in "Studies on Hysteria" of 1895.

(Richelmy) Anna 0., whose real name was Bertha Pappenheim,

developed unexplained symptoms:

cough, paralysis of one side of the body, difficulty of language.

(Richelmy) Breuer treatment with hypnosis, that Dr. Charcot already used in Paris,

so Anna can reconstruct the causes of his illness,

connecting them to the father's illness.

(Richelmy) For Freud this case illumination.

(Richelmy) it senses the existence of the unconscious and repression

that will be the cornerstones of his theory.

(Richelmy) Since then Anna O. entered in our imagination,

as Little Hans, or Man of the Wolves, other historical Freud's patients.

(Richelmy) are myth today.

What Freud has shown is that psychological phenomena

exist at different levels

and that beneath the surface of communication and language

There are inner drives that occur.

(Kandel) Over the artists of the period, in part influenced by Freud,

these instinctive drives express themselves radically.

(SONG "FOR STRINGS QUARTET IN D MINOR" OF SCHUBERT)

(Richelmy) Today a painting by Egon Schiele

is auctioned for millions of Euros,

but for decades it was the only painter of the ugly,

smut and immorality.

(Richelmy) Ahead of its time Elisabeth Leopold

she inherited from her husband Rudolf passion for Schiele.

(Richelmy) The Leopold Museum, born from their collection,

has the largest collection in the world of his works,

with more than 40 paintings and 180 works on paper.

No art the world has so much occupied

human feelings.

(Leopold) The embrace, the painted in all ages,

but the need to embrace, fragility, fear, how long?

(Leopold) Or, is it sincere? How is this going on?

(Leopold) All these questions are already inside these hugs complicated.

No art has occupied so much of the feelings,

the fears, the shadowy sides of life.

(Kallir) First, and in its most universal meaning,

what we see is a very young man

who comes to terms with his sexuality.

(Kallir) I think it's something that you recognize all.

(Kallir) is the reason why so many young people,

in the last 100 years, they are identified by Schiele

and they were drawn to him, young men and young women.

(SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE)

(Richelmy) The Habsburgs have lived in this castle for almost two centuries.

(Richelmy) Here the court spent the summers.

(SONG: "THE BAT: Overtura" OF STRAUSS)

(Richelmy) The Marionette Theater Schonbrunn

He revives the happy times of the dances

operettas and signed by the king of waltz Johann Strauss.

(SONG: "THE BAT: Overtura" OF STRAUSS)

(Richelmy) In the early twentieth century Vienna

It is staged the recitation of the good society.

(Richelmy) Meanwhile, it woos and you fools,

stolen kisses behind wives and husbands,

cruel jokes, and betting scams.

(Richelmy) A to stage the truth

He thinks the writer Arthur Schnitzler.

"How many things at the same time find space in us!"

"The love and betrayal."

"We try to put order in our feelings,"

"As best we can."

"But that order is still something artificial."

"What is natural is only chaos."

Even Schnitzler for some years he was a doctor,

then he chose the literature.

(Richelmy) The friend Berta Zuckerkandl

reports that Freud would have written Schnitzler:

"I'm not the discoverer of psychoanalysis, but Iei ..."

"She recognized that lightning this hell,"

"Just as only a writer can do."

(Richelmy) Today we look "Eyes Wide Shut" by Kubrick

and perhaps we not even know that it is inspired by "Double Dream" Schnitzler.

From New York to Vienna today that,

always we dream the same dreams.

In Schnitzler as in a circle, infidelity and lies chase.

The Viennese bourgeoisie has stripped with its double standards.

Fräulein Else you have to strip away

to get a loan and save his father from prison.

He will do this or not ?

How Else, Lily Cole, actress and British model,

activist and historian, is a strong woman.

"The Twilight stares into the room, like a ghost, like a hundred ghosts."

"From my lawn go up ghosts."

"How far is Vienna ? How long are far away?"

"As I'm alone here!"

(Cole) "I go in the living room?"

"But someone is not playing?"

"A Beethoven sonata!"

"How do you play Beethoven's here!"

(Cole) "I'm neglecting the piano,"

"Vienna will resume on practicing regularly."

(Cole) "I'll start a completely new life."

(Cole) "We have to do it all. So it can not go on."

"One time or another I'll have to talk seriously with Dad,"

"If there is still time."

"We will, we will."

"Because I've never done before?"

"In our house everything is resolved with the jokes"

"And nobody wants to fool around."

"Everyone basically afraid of the other, each is alone."

(Richelmy) The thoughts and emotions of Else flow on the page,

free, unclear and inconsistent as it happens in reality.

(Richelmy) With her Schnitzler goes where Freud has substantially failed,

He can not understand women.

(Richelmy) After all, he's had it a lot,

lovers of one or a few nights,

which notes in diary keeping since he was 17,

meeting after meeting, embrace after embrace.

(Richelmy) At the end of his life will be 8,000 pages written,

endless self-analysis, a mine for his own writing.

He slept with thousands of women.

If you go to bed with thousands of women, they know a lot about sex.

(TRACK: "ODE TO JOY" BEETHOVEN)

(Gilliam) Beethoven is a fundamental figure.

In the history of German music culture

It has been used many times as a moment of liberation.

(Gilliam) Pure secessionists as Klimt Beethoven consider a liberator.

(Richelmy) Here the secessionists,

in a photo taken for the 14th group exhibition

celebrating the genius of Ludwig van Beethoven.

(Richelmy) It is 1902 and the exhibition will mark a turning point in the history of art.

(Richelmy) The arrangement of the works organized by architect Josef Hoffmann

for the first time it is accurate in every detail.

(Richelmy) was born the modern construction, as we know it today.

(Richelmy) total work of art.

(Richelmy) Is that what you want to create the secessionists

combining various disciplines.

(Richelmy) For the inauguration,

Mahler directed the "Ninth Symphony" by Beethoven.

(Richelmy) "It is the art Human gospel of the future"

as had called another composer, Richard Wagner.

(Richelmy) Klimt illustrates the symphony in his "Frieze."

The whole scene is enclosed by suspended genes.

(Weidinger) This gives the whole a slight movement

and it indicates in which direction you should read "The frieze".

(Weidinger) One of the first scenes is the golden knight.

(Gilliam) If you look at the face, is to Mahler.

The new link is this: Mahler, Beethoven, Klimt, the Secession.

It's all connected.

(Weidinger) In the next segment affects the temptation

and everyone knows the representation of the Temptation of St. Anthony,

but Gustav Klimt tries to find a new form in itself,

therefore creates this huge gorilla,

a monster with a snake body that takes up nearly two-thirds of the wall.

(Weidinger) Then all mashed side,

these figures skinny greed, envy and voluptuousness.

(Weidinger) are the dangers that act upon man ground.

(Richelmy) "The frieze" is not flat, but three-dimensional.

(Richelmy) Klimt painting fits into the semi-precious stones,

how he learned to do

at the School of Applied Arts where he studied.

(Richelmy) In the third wall Klimt gives body to its utopia,

poetry and the arts bring the man in the realm of the ideal.

(Richelmy) Finally, the happiness, the exalted in " 'Ode to Joy".

"The Beethoven Frieze" was the work of Klimt, Schiele preferred

and it is here that we see the most of what has left Klimt to Schiele,

the ability of art to triumph over evil,

illness and death.

It is one of the many themes that KIimt explored in his allegories.

For Schiele I would say that is the theme.

(SONG: "SILENT NIGHT" FRANZ GRUBER)

(Richelmy) In 1903 the secessionists Koloman Moser and Josef Hoffmann

create with the industrialist Fritz Waerndorfer,

a new business idea which is also a philosophy of work,

the laboratories of Wiener Werkstàtte.

(Richelmy) The artists' projects meet the know-how of the craftsman

and they are born unique and precious objects for new aesthetics of everyday life.

(Richelmy) The ever work of art lives.

(Schmuttermeier) The Wiener Werkstàtte published in 1905 a program

in which they present their ideas and their statutes.

I read for a ride.

(Schmuttermeier) "We want to establish a deep contact"

"Public, designer and craftsman"

"And we want to make the pieces of simple, well-made furniture."

(Schmuttermeier) "We start from the objective that the feature"

"Is our first condition."

(Schmuttermeier) "II craftsman's work must be measured"

"With the same meter as that of the painter and the sculptor."

(Richelmy) Many of the products of the Wiener Werkstàtte,

from furniture to everyday objects, jewelry,

are kept at the MAK, the Museum of Applied Arts in Vienna,

which it is located in this beautiful building on the Ringstrasse in 1871.

(Richelmy) Among the entrepreneurs linked to Wiener Werkstàtte there were Lobmeyr,

manufacturers of glass and crystal, that even today,

almost two centuries after the founding in 1823,

continue their tradition of superior craftsmanship.

(Richelmy) At the beginning of the twentieth century,

It is precisely the Lobmeyr to realize the experimental glasses

designed by Josef Hoffmann.

In his work, Hoffmann did resemble the glass

or stone, with massive cuts,

or a soap bubble, very delicate, and even decorated it in black and white.

(Rath) is a very unusual technique.

(Rath) The glass is colored black,

then with a bitumen enamel is painted black where you want to stay,

It is immersed in acid

and the glass is opaque outside with black decorations.

This Viennese Jugendstil is distinguished by the shape clear and simple,

as in this chair,

but with the maximum effect precisely thanks to an ingenious form.

(Leopold) So simplicity, but maximum effect outside.

(Richelmy) patterned chairs and cabinets with carved figures

are some of the creations

the other founder of the Wiener Werkstàtte,

Koloman Moser, who is also a painter and graphic artist.

(Richelmy) For the Secession draws posters

and illustrates the magazine "Ver Sacrum".

(MUSIC)

(Richelmy) is the greenhouse of the Habsburgs,

rebuilt in the early '900 in the modern style,

the same as the architect Otto Wagner

It adopts for its stations Stadtbahn.

(Richelmy) At Naschmarkt, between 1898 and 1899,

Wagner designed three houses, on which flowers bloom Secession.

(Richelmy) also collaborates Moser who draws the golden details

one of these houses.

(Richelmy) The mark of Wagner's factory is the flat façade.

(Richelmy) A few years later she will find its highest expression

the Postal Bank.

(Richelmy) The building is clad in marble and granite slabs,

fixed with aluminum covered nails.

(Richelmy) are 17,000 and combine utility and aesthetics,

a functional ornament.

(TRACK: "LCH HABE Deinen MUND GEKÙSST JOACHANNAN" FROM "SALOME" OF STRAUSS)

(Cole) "Against me were saying outrageous words,"

"Against me, Salome, daughter of Herodias, Princess of Judaea."

"Well, Jochanaan, I still live,"

"Instead you are dead, and your head, your head is mine!"

(Cole) "Did I kissed your mouth, Jochanaan."

(Cole) "I kissed your mouth, there was a bitter taste on the lips."

(Cole) "It was the taste of blood? No! But maybe it was the taste of love."

"They say love knows how to love. But who cares? Who cares?"

"Did I kissed your mouth, Jochanaan."

"I have kissed thy mouth."

Where does a kiss ? Heaven or hell ?

The kiss of Salome ensnares and upsets.

In May of 1906 the world of music,

when Gustav Mahler, Arnold Schoenberg ad,

from Alban Berg to Giacomo Puccini, he runs in Graz,

to listen to the "Salome" conducted by its composer Richard Strauss.

(Richelmy) in Vienna the work is banned.

(Richelmy) The newspaper "Grazer Tagblatt" defines the part of fantasy

a sexually perverse nature.

(Richelmy) is a success and a scandal.

Three years later, Klimt finished the picture he considers his masterpiece.

It is another kiss, another universe.

(TRACK: "LCH HABE Deinen MUND GEKÙSST JOACHANNAN" FROM "SALOME" OF STRAUSS)

(Smola) The woman is kneeling on a lawn and the man the tight surrounds.

The woman has the face turned toward the viewer, eyes closed,

and it is in a trance, as if in ecstasy.

(Smola) The fascinating thing about this picture is the wallpaper.

(Smola) is a technical invention of Gustav Klimt.

(Smola) It is a kind of rain of stars

or a gold powder, and produces as cosmic atmosphere.

Klimt was in contact with doctors practicing modern medicine

and he began to gain some knowledge about how it works as the brain.

(Kandel) He incorporated some of these ideas in his art.

(Kandel) Moreover, often he used symbols to convey his ideas.

In "Kiss", the dress of the woman has circular symbols

representing the egg cells.

(Kandel) Instead the garment man

there are rectangular symbols for sperm.

A Klimt liked to look at under the microscope

and he learned a lot about anatomy in this way.

(Richelmy) Egon Schiele reinterprets the Klimt painting,

the only one who sees a teacher.

(Richelmy) Shoots the subject and composition,

Ii but filled with an explosive content.

(Richelmy) A kiss here are a cardinal and a nun.

(Richelmy) For Austria deeply Catholic then

un'immagine ovviamente indecente, inaccettabile, sacrilega.

(VOCE NON UDIBILE)

(Richelmy) Nella Vienna benpensante, il sesso si teme e si controlla,

con i precetti di una buona educazione e con la censura,

ma la repressione non ferma il desiderio, anzi lo amplifica.

(BRANO: "VALSE ROUGE" DI PLATFORM K+K VIENNA)

Penso che la gente capisse che il sesso era importante.

Non necessariamente capivano che può essere un fattore determinante

in so many different behaviors,

many of which on the surface seem unrelated to sex.

(Kandel) Freud realized that there are two forces instinctual instinctive behavior,

aggression and sexuality.

(Cole) It is interesting that recently some posters by Schiele

have not passed the test of morality of the British advertising authority,

nor that of on-Iine on Facebook advertising,

because obviously you see the genitals drawn.

Another 100 years later we are not willing to show them in advertisements.

(Cole) If you think that his work and his images are provocative today,

imagine what they were 100 years ago.

It must have been unheard of.

(BRANO: "VALSE ROUGE" DI PLATFORM K+K VIENNA)

Egon Schiele was classified for decades

as one of the greatest erotic artists

and even after the war you could not buy Schiele

in the art market, but only in the pornographic.

(Richelmy) In his works eroticism is mixed with other feelings.

(Richelmy) In the eyes of the figures portrayed

There are seduction and challenge, but also anguish and loneliness.

(Richelmy) The Schiele images are ruthless,

like the way he treated his models.

(Weidinger) Egon Schiele was a very aggressive man

which was to interact with the model.

(Weidinger) The corner put physically and psychologically.

(Weidinger) He tortured women.

In this sense, Schiele was a disgusting person,

a man impossible.

He had to corner the woman and still more step on his foot,

Then when they had taken in a situation

from which she could not see any way out,

there becomes exceptional in performer

and in a few seconds or minutes it achieves a perfect design.

(TRACK: "LULU SUITE ADAGIO" OF BERG)

(Richelmy) Precisely this position, with the painter standing over to the model,

determines an unusual perspective.

(Richelmy) Today the use of these designs

reveals our gender bias,

as Jane Kallir tells us that he studied for decades Schiele

and he oversaw the complete catalog of the works.

Reading the classic history of feminist art

we talk about the liability of the female nude,

that men feel threatened by women's sexuality,

from the open recognition of female sexuality.

(Kallir) it felt a little 'hard to believe,

but then I began to notice something interesting

when I worked with curators and collectors male.

Schiele very often he signed his drawings

of vertically lying female nudes,

but all these men

They insisted to hang the works horizontally, always.

(Kallir) It happened only with heterosexual men.

(Kallir) noting that, I had concrete evidence

than Schiele was revolutionary

in the way he dealt with women's sexuality.

The really he liberated from the confines of the male gaze

who had held captive for centuries.

(Richelmy) Egon Schiele was born June 12, 1890

in Tulln, a town about 40 km from Vienna,

where his father worked as a stationmaster.

(Richelmy) Their house still exists today

turned into a museum.

(Richelmy) The use in railways is a family trade

and even Egon would have to continue the tradition,

but it is a bad student, always busy with his scribbles.

(Richelmy) is the only son,

before him were born Elvira, who died at 10 years, and Melanie.

(Richelmy) For last born Gertrude said Gerti.

(Richelmy) She will be the first to pose for Egon.

(Richelmy) Among them is such an intimate relationship I'incesto touch.

(Richelmy) Egon was 14 when his father Adolf Schiele dies.

(Richelmy) From time was suffering from syphilis.

(Richelmy) In the works of his son's death becomes a constant presence.

(Richelmy) Its trees have the appearance of dry shrubs.

(Richelmy) Cities are closed and deserted.

(Richelmy) In the paintings of Schiele's feelings are tormented.

(Richelmy) Looking at them one can not remain indifferent.

When the neuroscientist Eric Kandel

He began to study the relationship between art, mind and brain,

It started right from the works of the painters of the early twentieth century Vienna.

(Richelmy) Kandel was born in Vienna in 1929.

(Richelmy) His father had a shop of toys and suitcases,

but the Nazis had forced the Kandel, Jews, to flee to America.

(Richelmy) Eric graduated in History and Literature and later in medicine.

(Richelmy) At Columbia University began his research

on the biochemical mechanisms of memory.

(Richelmy) In 2000 he won the Nobel Prize for Medicine.

I think artists have always been aware

that the viewer a picture superimposes their emotional and cognitive state

and their insights.

(Kandel) What modern artists have understood is that the beholder

It is a sexual animal and then responds with sexual urges.

He's not going to give him relief,

but art arouses curiosity or causes sexual

by the observer.

(Richelmy) Exaggerating body postures, hand gestures

and especially the expression of the faces,

Klimt and Schiele light empathy of the viewer,

They have realized that it is from these parts that interpret the emotions.

(Richelmy) Our brain, as a consequence, there is the try.

(Richelmy) Like those who can raise an erotic drawing.

(Richelmy) Gustav Klimt has made thousands in his studio.

(Richelmy) Ii has not shown almost never.

(Richelmy) Berta Zuckerkandl remember that Klimt drew many hours a day,

alternately with the right hand and the left hand.

(Richelmy) In its antechamber always waited numerous Models

that had to be at his disposal.

(Weidinger) Klimt observes and draws, draws, draws.

There, a woman begins to masturbate maybe,

put your finger on the clitoris and Klimt draws it,

Then she takes her pleasure.

(Weidinger) These stages of lust, that was a theme for Klimt,

he has drawn, like a movie.

They are not really more that still frames

a film that he has made.

(Richelmy) Trading bare was forbidden, but Vienna was full.

(Richelmy) circulated under the table,

sold as anatomical representations of beauty

or as artists' studios to circumvent censorship.

(Richelmy) Photographer Otto Schmidt, finished several times in prison,

He had specialized in the genre, opening a real company.

There are 6000-6500 nude studies that Otto Schmidt realized

during his career.

(Mahler) There are miniature sheets.

(Mahler) For him, of course it was important to have a catalog

and there was this thumbnail image, numbered,

it was a catalog orders.

(Mahler) It was common for painters and artists collezionassero photographs.

(Mahler) The poses of Klimt drawings were compared

with pictures of Otto Schmidt and surprising findings have similarities,

but one can only speculate that he copied, not prove it.

(Richelmy) Lake Attersee is located 250 km from Vienna,

not far from Salzburg.

(SPEAKING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE)

(Richelmy) From the late nineteenth

good families in the capital came here by train for the holidays.

(Richelmy) It also does Gustav Klimt, 1900-1916.

(Richelmy) Every summer I spent a few weeks,

frequent guest of friends, as in Villa Paulick.

(Richelmy) During these stays with him there is always a woman,

Emilie Flòge.

(Richelmy) Between the two there was soon a love story gone

the continuing betrayal of him.

(Richelmy) Despite this, will always remain neighbors.

(Richelmy) Emilie Gustav is for more than one wife, is a soul mate.

(Richelmy) Ad Attersee Klimt si immerge nella natura,

dipingendo en plein air e così la distesa d'acqua del lago,

i prati fioriti, gli alberi, entrano nei suoi quadri,

ma trasformati in ornamenti,

non molto diversi dagli sfondi dei suoi ritratti.

Solo paesaggio, nessuna prospettiva, nessun cielo, nessun orizzonte.

(Richelmy) L'attrice Maxi Blaha ha portato al Belvedere

la storia di Emilie Flòge.

(Richelmy) Ecco Emilie in una serie di fotografie scattate dallo stesso Klimt.

(Richelmy) È una delle stiliste dell'avanguardia viennese.

(Richelmy) Nel 1904 ha fondato insieme a Helene e Pauline

l'atelier delle Sorelle Flòge.

(Richelmy) Qui le signore più intraprendenti possono acquistare

un nuovissimo modello battezzato non a caso "Abito della riforma".

(Richelmy) È ampio e comodo.

È stata un 'innovatrice, era contro l'uso del corsetto.

Already this time was a strong feminist statement.

Women no longer had to wear those corsets so uncomfortable.

It's the new woman.

(Gilliam) is reminded of the famous painting by Klimt, "Nuda Veritas".

(Gilliam) A naked woman with red hair, from top to bottom,

looks at you, unashamed, holding a mirror.

The truth, the naked woman finally exposed.

Before the women wore corsets and long dresses.

Now the woman is freed from these corsets.

It's a bit 'like a pressure cooker.

The lid had been closed too long

and sooner or later the steam had to go out.

That vapor was Freud, Klimt was, was in Schonberg.

(Kallir) The woman then is no longer forced,

It is no longer passive, but emerges.

Hermine Hug-Hellmuth is among the first women to attend university

and to be admitted to the circle of Freud

and in 1913 to the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society.

He deals with the infantile psychic life, even in this is the first.

Its success, and it is no coincidence,

He begins with a little girl who likes to write.

"Twelve July. Hella and I write a diary."

"We agreed to keep a diary and write something every day,"

"As soon as we entered the gymnasium."

(Cole) "Even Dora keeps a diary, but gets angry when I look at it."

(Cole) "Ventitré luglio. Scriviamo su fogli volanti."

(Cole) "Secondo Hella è meglio"

"perché così non c'è bisogno di strappar via niente."

(Cole) "Però ci siamo promesse di non buttare e non stracciare nulla."

(Cole) "Perché dovremmo ? A un'amica si può dire tutto."

(Richelmy) "Il Diario di una giovinetta",

dietro cui si nasconde la stessa Hermine, esce nel 1919.

(Richelmy) Freud himself called it: "A little jewel."

(Richelmy) The diary contains the thoughts

a child of the Viennese society,

from 11 to 14 years.

(Richelmy) Of the young protagonist page in the page grows

and it makes a shocking discovery: the sex life.

(Richelmy) This is thus the secret rule of the adult world

and she wants to know.

(Cole) "Nine of October."

(Cole) "Now I know everything! That's where babies come from."

(Cole) "That meant Robert."

"Not for me, thank you, just do not get married at all."

(NITRITE)

(Cole) "Twenty-two in November."

(Cole) "The other day, when I came away"

"The lesson of religion with Berta Franke,"

"Of course we started to talk about that thing."

(Cole) "He says people get married just for that."

"I replied that I could not believe, many are married and then have children."

(Cole) " 'Yes, yes', said Berta,' but it's true what I say. ''

(Cole) "First of June."

"What an experience we had today!"

(Cole) "We went into the room of Returns and from behind the curtain"

"We peeked in the mezzanine, there lives a newlywed couple."

(Cole) "That is, according Resi people say that they are not really married,"

"Just live together."

"We have seen a horrible thing."

(Cole) "She was lying on the bed naked, with no clothes,"

"And he was kneeling beside the bed,"

"Himself completely naked and kissed her all over."

(Cole) "Dora then told me that they made him sick."

"On the morning of September 9, 1924,"

"Hermine Hug-Hellmuth is found dead at his home in Lustkandlgasse."

"She was strangled."

"The case is in all the papers."

"Few investigations and we have already identified the guilty."

"He is the grandson eighteen Rolf"

"Hermine whose aunt took care since he was small."

AI Rolf process will defend itself in this way.

"I did not mean to kill her at all."

"You know, she had her faults."

"I always psicoanalizzava unless I wanted to."

(Richelmy) In 1900 in Vienna

economically independent women are 33%,

a figure nearly doubled in 30 years before.

(Richelmy) claim emancipatory spaces,

from education to employment.

(Richelmy) Dora Kallmus, daughter of a jew lawyer from Vienna,

He decided to become a photographer.

(Richelmy) At 26 he opened his own studio

under the banner "Atelier d'Ora".

(Richelmy) The first to go are just friends of his father,

not any customers,

but the most prominent personalities of the world of journalism and culture,

by composer Alban Berg

the family of Alfred Roller, the famous designer of the Staatsoper.

(Richelmy) In a very short time become the photographer Dora Kallmus

most in demand in the capital and the most expensive.

(Richelmy) Artists, actors and the ladies of the upper class

entrust their image.

(TRACK: "ROSE OF THE SOUTH" BY STRAUSS)

It was famous for making every woman beautiful.

(Faber) There are some wonderful letters from Alma Mahler

he writes that it is so happy and you like it so much,

"But please, Miss Dora,"

"I could not even make me a little more beautiful, slimmer?"

So, she could.

That was his secret.

(Faber) worked with filters,

the negatives are painted and drew us into

and many other solutions.

(Faber) was famous,

the best in these things and to make them invisible.

(SONG "FOR ELISA" BEETHOVEN)

(Richelmy) From Dora the time passes quickly,

ladies pose trying clothes, hats, scarves,

almost do not notice that you're taking.

(Richelmy) The photos capture the faces of Viennese women

who went to the theater and the opera,

and at home they are playing the piano to entertain guests.

(Richelmy) The pianist Rudolf Buchbinder was 11

when in 1958 he made his debut on the stage of the Vienna Musikverein.

All the girls of good family had to learn to play the piano

and Mozart, of course, was an outstanding example.

(Buchbinder) Mozart was the composer pop,

They are whistling the people on the street what Mozart or Beethoven composed.

(Buchbinder) The famous pieces like "Fur Elise"

or the "Sonata of Beethoven clear moon" were pop works.

(Buchbinder) The piano had in the musical life of Vienna

and family life an important role.

(Buchbinder) Do not forget that around 1920

in Vienna there were more than 100 piano factories.

(Richelmy) In Vienna dances and Johann Strauss

tradition and modernity coexist.

(Richelmy) In 1897, the same year in which Mahler had arrived at the Staatsoper

He died Johannes Brahms, the composer of classical forms.

(Richelmy) In 1899, twenty-five Arnold Schonberg

composed a piece inspired by a poem by Richard Dehmel.

(Richelmy) It's called "Transfigured Night"

and is a portrait in music of the new woman.

(Muxeneder) The poem is about a walk of a couple

in a transfigured night

when the woman confesses that she is pregnant with another man

and her boyfriend, or husband, responds:

"Okay, I'll accept this child as my own."

(Muxeneder) It was a very unusual way

to deal with female sexuality and the relationship between the sexes.

(TRACK: "Transfigured Night" by Schoenberg)

(Richelmy) In 1908 Schoenberg composed music

that he had never heard before.

(Richelmy) is detached from the tonal system.

(Richelmy) His work number 10

It is the first step in dell'atonalità territory.

We wander without a fixed point.

We are floating in space without any sense of gravity.

(Gilliam) is the direction indicated Schonberg.

(Gilliam) We must abandon the severity and this is the atonal music.

There is no force to attract us toward a tonal center.

(Richelmy) Today at the Arnold Schoenberg Center in Vienna

an archive contains manuscripts, sheet music, photographs

and many other documents.

(Richelmy) Here we continue to study the work of Schonberg

which was not only a composer,

but also music theorist, poet, inventor, painter.

Schonberg, along new roads was one man in Vienna.

(Muxeneder) was the first and most radical.

(Muxeneder) For Schonberg was very difficult,

each gave his first scandal.

(Richelmy) around him forms a circle,

dal maestro Alexander Zemlinsky,

of which Schoenberg married his sister Mathilde,

to young pupils Alban Berg and Anton Webern.

(Richelmy) are often traveling together, as in these photos taken by Berg.

(Richelmy) Schonberg known writers such as Karl Kraus,

the debater of Vienna, and many artists.

(Richelmy) Moreover, he paints.

(Richelmy) For the colors giving him lessons

He was a young painter, Richard Gerstl.

So Gerstl began to spend time with him.

They spent together the summer holidays and during these holidays

Gerstl became infatuated Madame Schoenberg

She fell in love with him and they had a relationship.

(Kandel) But Schonberg discovered the affair

and he said to Madame Schonberg: "You have to choose, either him or me."

She chose Schönberg and Gerstl committed suicide.

He went to his studio, he painted a portrait of her,

and then he killed himself.

It's sad, but it went well.

(Richelmy) Just a few weeks earlier he had made this picture.

(Richelmy) Nerve strokes appear the sign of his worries.

(Richelmy) It is I " 'Self Portrait naked" with palette.

(Richelmy) For Gerstl, as Schiele, painting is self-analysis.

Egon Schiele retracts the first time after the death of his father,

key episode of his biography.

In the mother can not find the love that look,

but it will never separate from the large mirror

that she has given him.

(Richelmy) That's where he studied himself to replicate his image.

One hundred and seventy times.

One hundred and seventy are his self-portraits.

It copies and turns.

(Richelmy) Change his face, pulls, the model.

(Richelmy) recombines traits.

Clear, angry, scared, mad, dead.

Schiele is always himself and is always another.

(Schroder) What is the real Egon Schiele ? This question is misleading.

(Schroder) Egon Schiele is an actor.

(Schroder) Go to different parts

to depict the wide horizon of possibilities

that a man can have.

(Schroder) Being a man means not only be a bourgeois

or just a criminal, only a saint or just a freak.

Man is many things at once.

(TRACK: "FINISH WHERE THE LEMONS" OF STRAUSS)

(Richelmy) AI of the Belvedere Museum

there is a room that perhaps Schiele visited.

(Richelmy) is dedicated to the eighteenth-century sculptures

di Franz Xaver Messerschmidt.

(Richelmy) are some of the self-portraits

Messerschmidt realized that after the onset of paranoid psychosis.

(Richelmy) For each head a different face

up to the maximum of the distortion.

(Richelmy) In the beginning of Vienna '900 own facial expressions

They were at the center of artistic debate.

(Richelmy) Many had in the eyes

photographs of hysterical patients Charcot

taken to the Hospital of the Salpêtrière in Paris.

(Richelmy) show the sick during their attacks,

I am a catalog of poses of the body and face.

(Richelmy) Even Schiele it was influenced.

He used himself as the subject of his art.

It was not the first artist to do so,

but it is very rare that an artist portray the naked,

Schiele yet it did.

(Kandel) Makes a great effect see the artist thus expose oneself.

(Leopold) A naked man looks at the naked man,

how sensitive his body and it is exposed to decay.

It appears naked men.

(Richelmy) But there is a moment in the life of Schiele

in which the role of the maniac he is sewn on by force.

(Richelmy) On 13 April 1912 he was arrested in Neulengbach,

a town not far from Vienna where he moved in the meantime.

(Richelmy) The charge that sends him in jail for three weeks

It is kidnapping and abuse of a young girl.

(Richelmy) Two charges that will soon expire as unfounded.

(Richelmy) What remains, though, is the possession of pornographic material,

accessible to minors, he found in his house.

(Richelmy) are his drawings.

(Richelmy) Schiele was sentenced,

more it burns the judge in court his sketch,

a spectacular warning.

For him it was traumatic and for good reason

because he had to deal for a long time

the fact that he could end up in prison for life,

and what to do in that time ?

(Schroder) Make a unique series of its kind for a dozen sheets,

in which represents its environment.

(Schroder) Use the series from prison as a metaphor

being locked up in the life and struggle for the freedom of art.

For us it is one of Egon Schiele's work vertices.

(TRACK: "MOONLIGHT SONATA" BEETHOVEN)

(Richelmy) A Schiele support at this difficult time,

there is a woman, Wally Neuzil,

a model who had probably posed for Klimt.

(Richelmy) Wally, however, is lower class

Schiele in 1915 and suddenly abandons the

to marry bourgeois Edith Harms.

(Richelmy) Sacrifice love a good party.

(Richelmy) The painting "Death and the Maiden"

He tells this separation.

(Richelmy) Schiele painting Wally

desperately clinging to a lethal figure

where he represents himself.

It was expected that a young man, as was Schìeke,

had relations with prostitutes and women of lower social class

in the period between puberty and marriage.

(Kallir) At 20, when Schiele had relations

with a number of its models and in particular with Wally,

for young bourgeois was normal

do exactly what he was doing.

Then, exactly the age of 25,

Schiele married Edith,

and this again

It is what was prescribed in a young bourgeois of the time.

(DOOR THAT CLOSES)

(ACOUSTIC SIGNAL)

(Richelmy) The Albertina Museum

He guards his extraordinary collection of graphic art in a technological heart.

(Richelmy) A robot removes the protected works of art into the atmosphere stock.

(Richelmy) are one million.

(Richelmy) The robot is extracting some of the masterpieces on paper by Schiele.

One of the most extraordinary designs that I'AIbertina owns,

probably one of the most extraordinary works

Egon Schiele left us, shows him with his wife Edith.

(Schroder) Edith clings from behind,

He wants to be close to him physically and thus also spiritually.

(Schroder) Egon Schiele lies abandoned in his arms like a marionette,

He can not repay its tenderness, its intimacy.

This is the conception of the world of which I speak for all the works of Schiele

that are convincing.

In the end the man is alone.

(Schroder) "Everybody just die."

(Schroder) What in Fallada is the title of a novel,

Egon Schiele drew me.

(Cole) "I've never heard anything so beautiful."

"I've never seen a night so clear."

"Give me your hand, Dad. We fly together."

"It is so beautiful the world, when you can fly."

"But I do not kiss my hand. I'm your child, dad."

(Cole) "Else ! Else !"

(Cole) "They call from so far away! What do you want?"

(Cole) "Do not wake me, I sleep so well."

(Cole) "Dream and flight."

(Cole) "I want, I want, I want."

(Cole) "I sleep and dream and fly."

"Do not wake me in the morning."

"EI !"

"Flight, dream, sleep, dream, dream and fly."

One July evening, Lili Schnitzler, the writer's daughter,

out for a walk with her husband.

He says he forgot something and then back into the house,

It closes the bathroom and shoots himself.

(Richelmy) In the hospital before dying tells a friend:

"It was a moment of nervousness."

(Richelmy) Ha 18 anni.

For the father Arthur began his obsessive search of why.

By day between her daughter's diaries and haunted by night dreams

wherein the always sees on the point of killing.

For me, when you think about the afterlife

there's " 'Adagietto" of the "Fifth Symphony" Mahler

which for me it is one of the most exciting movements,

that makes me whenever brought tears to my eyes.

(Buchbinder) Now they are all good friends,

perhaps they meet the above and make chamber music.

(TRACK: "Adagietto" MAHLER)

Mahler was obsessed by death, it was for life.

At an early age he had lost some of his family members,

He was surrounded by death.

(Gilliam) He lost his daughter, he discovers he has a heart condition.

(Gilliam) He was convinced that he would die soon.

(Richelmy) In December 1907, Gustav Mahler left for America.

(Richelmy) On his decision weigh the anti-Semitic attacks

launched against him in the press.

(Richelmy) At the station there are Schonberg, Zemlinsky, Berg and Klimt

that when the train moves, exclaims: "Vorbei!"

(Richelmy) "It's all over."

(Richelmy) The generation of modern art

reads the signs of the end,

He feels the nearness of death.

Freud believed that there were two main impulses,

eroticism and death drive.

(Kandel) The have it all.

(Kallir) For Schiele's death was a crucial issue

as an attempt to transcend it.

One thing that he could do only art.

(Kallir) he saw it as a sort of priest,

as an artistic lighting preacher.

The Vienna engulfed by the disaster,

in the words of Stefan Zweig's "The World of Yesterday."

But in today there is still an echo, the glow of that world.

Sometimes just the suggestion of a simple agreement,

a dance step or a hug,

For gold, now dull, come on back.

(SONG: "THE BEAUTIFUL BLUE DANUBE" OF RADIO BY STRAUSS)

(Cole) we are now in our post-post-modern world,

or whatever you want to call it, where everything is possible,

and there are millions of new ideas, new freedoms, new legal rights.

I think you can be traced all this

Europe from the late nineteenth century, early twentieth century.

(Kallir) If we look at those works,

We see you enclosed the identity of the modern woman

and all the ambivalence and ambiguity

that we women still face today.

(Kandel) I think that the outlook today is quite similar

it is formulated for the first time.

It is more sophisticated, but the principles are the same.

There are erotic and aggressive instincts in many things.

(Buchbinder) Dancing is still very important today in Vienna.

(Buchbinder) I do not know how many hundreds of dance parties there are

between January and February.

(Buchbinder) Not only does the Opera Ball or the philharmonic, many small dances.

(Buchbinder) The Dancing pastry chefs, owners of coffee, fire.

(Buchbinder) Everywhere you dance.

(Buchbinder) Waltz, gallop, polka, march, everything.

Until the early hours of the morning, until five or six o'clock, you dance.

(TRACK: "WALTZ OF ACCELERATION" OF STRAUSS)

(Richelmy) "The Waltz", Schuman said,

"There are three types of head, heart and feet."

"His head and his waltzes are written yawning, in her nightgown,"

"When the road whizzing in direct cars to the ball,"

"Without stopping to charge anyone."

"The waltz of the heart come instead from the nostalgic waltz"

"The evening of flowers, from dusk figures,"

"Memories of vanished youth and a thousand other things you love."

(Richelmy) "The waltz of the feet are those of Strauss,"

"In which everything floats and jump."

"Curls, eyes, lips, arms and feet."

(TRACK: "WALTZ OF ACCELERATION" OF STRAUSS)

(Tolling of bells)

(Tolling of bells)

(MUSIC)

(Richelmy) The war Vienna falls into the abyss.

(Richelmy) At the end of 1918, the capital of wealth

It became a city lost and dying.

(Richelmy) Hunger, poverty, disease.

(Richelmy) In five years, the mortality rate rose by 60%.

(Richelmy) On November 12th is officially the republic.

(Richelmy) The Hapsburg Empire is over.

(Richelmy) In the same year,

with the death of Klimt, Wagner, Schiele and Moser,

Also turn off the lights on art.

When we consider that Vienna, we do not see the same thing.

Each generation looks at that in a different way

and I think the reason for this

is that if you look at the great creations of the time,

Schonberg in music

or Freud in psychotherapy

or Wittgenstein's philosophy

or Klimt and Schiele art,

what you see is a great time of uncertainty,

a moment in which everything is questioned.

(Kallir) Even if people try in their own way to find answers,

what remains, what is left to us all the time,

They are not the answers but the questions.

These are the questions those that remain.

(Richelmy) "The Dance of the Hours" which Gaetano Previati dreamed in the cosmos,

marks the time that passes inexorably.

With the fall of the Secession gods closes an era,

but if it opens a new, no certainties, with many shadows.

Thus begins the journey of the twentieth century, full of curves, obstacles.

The short century that is within us.
