Overview

Klimt Alive, the world’s first immersive exhibition celebrating Gustav Klimt, the iconic Viennese painter of the late 19th century, transforms his golden masterpieces into a multi-sensory experience at Dojima River Forum in Osaka from December 5, 2025, to March 1, 2026. Produced by Grande Experiences, known for Van Gogh Alive, this groundbreaking event projects Klimt’s works like The Kiss, Judith I, Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I, and Death and Life onto panoramic screens in a 7-meter-high space, accompanied by classical music, lighting, and scents. Visitors can enjoy photography-friendly zones, interactive AR experiences with the cat-loving “Klimt-san” mascot, and exclusive merchandise like Café Tanaka’s Golden Cookie Tins. Following its Tokyo run (Jul 18–Oct 5, 2025, Nihonbashi Mitsui Hall), the Osaka exhibition, praised on X for its “dazzling visuals” and “immersive magic,” offers ~1,000-capacity galleries. Tickets range from ¥1,300 (elementary/junior high) to ¥2,600 (adults/university students), with early bird pair tickets at ¥4,800 for two. Advance sales start October 16, 2025, 10:00 JST, ending December 4, 2025, 23:59 JST. Located near Osaka Station, the venue is ideal for exploring Umeda Sky Building or Nakanoshima Park. Secure tickets early via Jasumo due to expected sell-outs, as seen in Tokyo’s high demand.
