Gustav Klimt: The Immersive Experience brings the artist’s mesmerizing world to life with cutting-edge technology. Imagine stepping into a massive, 2,000-square-meter virtual space where Klimt’s most famous masterpieces surround you, glowing with the gold and intricate details that made him legendary.

Klimt wasn’t just an artist - he was the founder of the Viennese Secession who broke free from academic traditions and embraced complete creative freedom.

His obsession with gold? That came from his father, a goldsmith. His fascination with women? That shaped his art, weaving sensuality and symbolism into every brushstroke.

Klimt and his inner circle often clashed with conservative critics, but instead of backing down, they launched the Austrian Art Nouveau movement in 1897, forever changing the face of European art.

Speaking of gold, this exhibition has a showstopper: a golden tunnel designed to dazzle and guaranteed to be a prime spot for photos.

It’s a feast for the senses, brought to Budapest by the same team behind the city’s immersive Van Gogh and Monet exhibitions. After touring London, Dublin, LA, Miami, and Antwerp, Gustav Klimt: The Immersive Experience is finally here until early October! Don’t miss your chance to step into Klimt’s glittering universe.

Location: BOK Csarnok 1146 Budapest, Dózsa György út 1. (VII/a gate)
Date: from May 19, 2025, until early October 2025
