Vienna Secession in 8 Minutes 🇦🇹 Klimt's Femmes Fatales and Passion for Gold 💃

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!

As a Viennese, i would say Otto Wagner's and Klimt's work are really what gives the city so much of its Soul.

[@kryspinkiedrowski3330]

Thank you for this! Actually I came back from Vienna a couple of days ago. Gorgeous city, magnificent and stunning. I am still under the impression of Leopold's museum. Every person should see that place at least once ^^

[@CuriousMuse]

Glad to hear you enjoyed Vienna!

Sure, I've seen Klimt's < The Kiss > more than I can count , just like many others have, but I didn't know that there is the temple-like Secession building in Vienna and that it houses Klimt's Beethoven frieze which shows an embracing naked pair which the couple in Klimt's < The Kiss> resembles . Interesting! Yes, Beethoven is absolutely a composer to whom an exhibition is worth being devoted. I've listened to his piano sonatas, cello sonatas, works for violin and symphonies for so many years and never been bored. Thank you very much for lots of fresh information. 🤩😊

[@CuriousMuse]

Thank you for watching out stories! ☺️💪🏻

[@Catlily5]

I didn't know much about Klimt or the Vienna Succession. Thank you!

[@CuriousMuse]

Welcome! Glad you watched this video 🙏🏻

[@victordoofilipe9002]

Thanks you for this. Your content is pithy and informative and really helpful. As a teacher I really appreciate your efforts.

The Vienna Secessionists were an offshoot of the Glasgow School. See the work of Margaret McDonald and Charles Rennie Macintosh (who actually features on your mosaic of Secessionists at the beginning of the video).

[@CuriousMuse]

Thanks 🙏🏻, will check it out

[@THECREATIVITYZONE1976]

thank you for creating this! i got to visit vienna this summer and it was so beautiful to learn more about The Secession movement, even though I knew much about Egon Schiele & Klimt whom I purposely went to visit :)

[@bruceneeley1724]

Excellent information. Thank you!!

[@CuriousMuse]

😍🙏🏻

I actually really love a different person from the Secession, Koloman Mosor. I know Klimt is the most famous of the lot, and make no mistake his art is amazing. But I just love the patterns of Mosor's work so much as well as his heavy emphasis on line work in a lot of his stuff.

Thanks! I missed class when my prof was going over this topic but that video got me caught up!

[@CuriousMuse]

You are welcome! 🤗

Having visited Barcelona last week, experiencing Modernism, the Vienna Secession was clearly also modernist.

[@CuriousMuse]

😊🙏🏻

[@klausder1888]

Very Nice.. Thanks.

[@CuriousMuse]

Most welcome!

[@hythekent]

Some time ago, I bought a very large, beautiful blue, Minton secessionist planter. It was on the BBC program Flog It. I have often wondered why it is described as secessionist

[@lisengel2498]

I love your video - very interesting 🎵💜🎶

[@CuriousMuse]

😍🙏🏻

[@peterreston6478]

I visited the Golden Cabbage. It was delicious.

[@jesusalvarez4502]

Gran escuela.

[@richardbirger2245]

Thanks!

[@theostfuu]

Could you do a video about Vienna Actionism too? :)

[@CuriousMuse]

Thanks for the suggestion 👍🏻

[@toshiojohnston3732]

Amazing most of this predates 1910 and klimt before 1919.

[@chrisschross666]

5:17 and 7:51 the staircase in this picture is actually designed by Victor Horta for a house in Bruxelles, Belgium. It is not placed in Vienna.

[@CuriousMuse]

Thank you 👍🏻

[@motopvpi]

can you make a video on John Singer Sargent

[@Apeiron242]

Very informative video

[@CuriousMuse]

Thank you for watching it!

[@EdgardoPlasencia]

A place where the process of becoming a traswoman turns out to be an artwork ?

[@CuriousMuse]

Maybe that’s just how you see it?
