The Viennese artist Gustav Klimt (1862-1918) is world famous for his golden ornaments, his flowing colors and his sensual portraits of women. But where did he get his inspiration from? How well did he know Vincent van Gogh? Has he ever seen a painting by Henri Matisse? This catalog offers the unique opportunity to see Klimt’s work amid his numerous sources of inspiration.
By 1900, modern European art was ubiquitous in Vienna – in the Vienna Secession, in galleries, art magazines and private collections. Klimt was open to innovation, allowed his work to be influenced by it and did not obscure his artistic sources. The meeting between his works and those of the artists with whom he is associated reveals important and often surprising parallels. IN DUTCH!
