Klimtmania Series | hernanmurno

Klimtmania

The pieces in this series, are playful abstractions that use elements from Gustav Klimt’s wonderful landscapes and some of his other pieces; the flowers, the fields, the details of the tree trunks, the use of gold, only suggest the influence his work has on some of my paintings.

To every age its art, to every art its freedom

The Vienna Secession was an art movement formed in 1897 by a group of Austrian artists who had resigned from the Association of Austrian Artist. The group counted among it's members Gustave Klimt, Egon Schille and many more.

This painting shows a simplified map of Vienna and a depiction of the building that housed the movement. Those two are sorrounded by design elements favored by Klimt and a stylized depiction of some of the art in its interior.
