Happy Birthday Gustav Klimt!
This Friday, July 14, Gustav Klimt would have been 161 years old. To celebrate the birthday of the famous Austrian painter, Art Explora Academy has put together a selection of videos and podcasts. If you'd like to discover the life and work of the Symbolist artist whose The Kiss is one of the masterpieces of the Vienna Secession, you've come to the right place!

When people hear the words Vienna Secession they usually think of Gustav Klimt and his famous paintings. But there is much more to this artistic movement. It brought innovations to Austrian architecture, graphic arts, and furniture design.

Grab a seat in the Curious Muse time machine and let’s travel back to the end of the 19th century when Vienna Secession was born!
