High Karat Exhibits at the
Museum Frieder Burda
January 19 – June 2, 2013
MATTA, fictions in the Museum Frieder Burda
Roberto Matta (1911 – 2002), whose works are represented in museums worldwide, is considered one of the most important painters of the 20th century. Matta traveled extensively through Europe and moved to Paris in 1933, where he met with leading members of the Surrealist movement. While living in Paris, the Chilean born artist met with comtemporaries such as Dali, Andrew Breton, Marcel Duchamp and Le Corbusier. The first true flowering of Matta’s own art came in 1938, when he moved from drawings to oil painting for which he is best known. This period coincided with his immigration to the United States where he lived until 1948.
June 15 – October 13, 2013
EMIL NOLDE at the Museum Frieder Burda
Emil Nolde (1867-1956) is known for his vigorous brushwork and expressive choice of colors. He was one of the first Expressionists and is considered to be one of the great oil and watercolor painters of the 20th century. Golden yellows and deep reds appear frequently in his work, giving a luminous quality to otherwise somber tones. His watercolors include vivid, brooding storm-scapes and brilliant florals.
Easter Festival – Berliner Philharmonic at the Festspielhaus
March 23 – April 1, 2013
The first Easter Festival in Baden-Baden in 2013 will begin with Mozart’s “The Magic Flute.” The Berlin Philharmonic will be conducted by Sir Simon Rattle. In the following years this new festival will be opened with Puccini’s “Manon Lescaut” (2014), Richard Strauss’ “Der Rosenkavalier” (2015) and Richard Wagner’s “Tristan and Isolde” (2016).
A New Year
Dear Travel Professional,
At the start of the New Year I send you my best wishes and present to you a repertoire of outstanding special events which include highlights of concerts, opera and exhibits for the first several months of the year.
Enjoy the Berlin Philharmonic during the Easter festivities and watch operas such as ‘The Magic Flute,” just to name one example. You will also be inspired by a visit to the Museum Frider Burda with their unique events, or just spend a day at your favorite spa.
For our friends from overseas who will be coming to Europe for pleasure or business I suggest you take a closer look at our 3-day “Fit and Active” Mini Vacation packages. It is a great way to relax and unwind from your busy schedule. Remember, Baden-Baden is less than 2 hours away by train from the Frankfurt Airport.
I am looking forward to your visit.
Best wishes,
Brigitte Goertz-Meissner
CEO and President
