http://www.richardgerstl.com A comprehensive and academic reference guide to his life and works and a chronicle of his triangular relationship with Arnold and Mathilde Schönberg (1906-1908) Sun, 03 Feb 2013 18:00:30 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 http://www.richardgerstl.com/#comment-19950 Graziella Gangi Sun, 03 Feb 2013 18:00:30 +0000 http://www.richardgerstl.com/?page_id=3941#comment-19950 Thank you for sharing your work. I didn't know Gerstl until I visited an exhibition in Milan, "Schiele and his age" (2010). The Gerstl's Self-portrait (1904) was a revelation, and when I faced it, I suddenly realized the reason why I had bought the ticket (since I never loved the extreme aestheticism of Schiele and Klimt). Your website is precious: it's not so easy to find informations and images about Gerstl. I'm a painter too, and I'm searching for the humanity inside human beings. www.graziellagangi.it Thank you for sharing your work.

It's good, too, to debunk the myth of a composer's immediate feelings flowing into his music. It's often said Beethoven wrote some of his most cheerful music when he was depressed and vice versa. There's no reason to believe Schoenberg was any different, especially given the fact he was a stickler for technique. It's good, too, to see some Gerstls!
