Gustav
Klimt, 1862 - 1918 He is the founder Vienna Sezession
school of art, that embodies the high-keyed erotic, psychological,
and aesthetic preoccupations of turn-of-the-century Vienna's
dazzling intellectual world. He is known as the preeminent
exponent of ART NOUVEAU.
Klimt began as an artist-decorator. In 1886-92, Klimt
executed mural decorations for staircases at the Burgtheater
and the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna; these confirmed
Klimt's eclecticism and broadened his range of historical
references. Klimt was a cofounder and the first president
of the Vienna Secession, a group of modernist architects
and artists who organized their own exhibition society
and gave rise to the SECESSION MOVEMENT, or the Viennese
version of Art Nouveau.
