<p><strong> I&#8217;m exhausted.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p> Actor Nao Matsushita said with a straight face as soon as she opened her mouth. The &#8220;Egon Schiele Exhibition&#8221; opened at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum on March 26. Matsushita, who appeared at the preview on March 25 after spending 40 minutes looking at the works in detail, said that she had seen Egon Schiele in Vienna six years ago.</p>
<p><strong> He is not a one-trick pony. It is an addictive, addictive work. I wonder if he himself was like that. Which is he depicting, life or death?</strong></p>
<p> As an &#8220;artist&#8221; who graduated from a music college, is active as a pianist, and has performed solo at prestigious live houses such as Billboard Tokyo, his impressions were sharp.</p>
<p><strong> He is a music graduate and pianist, and has performed at prestigious live shows such as Billboard Tokyo, so his impressions are sharp. I like the colors. I like the white and orange of the background, and the face is not a single color. The gaze, which makes it hard to tell what the viewer is thinking, is also appealing.</strong></p>

<p> On this day, Matsushita was wearing an off-white bow-tie blouse reminiscent of fin-de-siècle Vienna and a deep green see-through skirt. She wore black tights and low-heeled lace-up shoes in a subdued fashion. The outfit, which resembled that of an art student, showed respect for Schiele and other fin-de-siècle Viennese artists.</p>
<p> Egon Schiele&#8217;s talent was discovered at a young age, but he was once jailed because his depictions of sex in his works were considered &#8220;obscene. In this exhibition, many of his works depicting female nudes are overflowing with life and death.</p>
<p><strong> It was also interesting to see the contrast between the two. It was interesting to see the contrast between the two. It gave freedom to the viewer. The viewer is free to be free too&#8230;&#8221;</strong></p>
<p> Matsushita, perhaps with a strong desire for freedom, chose his words carefully as he spoke of his thoughts. He was impressed by the eroticism and dangerous charm of Egon Schiele&#8217;s work, saying, &#8220;It sucked the power of life out of me.</p>
