"I have the gift of neither the spoken nor the written word, especially if I have to say something about myself or my work. Whoever wants to know something about me -as an artist, the only notable thing- ought to look carefully at my pictures and try and see in them what I am and what I want to do."
Gustav Klimt
From 1876 to 1883 Gustav Klimt attended the Vienna School of Arts and Crafts and from 1879 he started working with his brother Ernst Klimt on decorative paintings, designed for public buildings in Vienna, Bucharest and Rijeka. In 1897 Klimt was one of the founding Members of the Vienna Session. He was chairman until he resigned in 1905. Gustav Klimt created a very new style in the Austrian art world. He broke with the conventional academic ideals. Especially his work in his later period is signed with very intensive colors, frequent use of gold backgrounds, ornamental layouts, slight erotic elements and heavy symbolism. Although his work was controversy, he still had a strong influence in the cultural world and he established himself as a very popular painter in the Viennese society.
