4 Why?What does it look like?
Art expanded to include the everyday- architecture, daily objects (glass, jewelry) Ornate, heavy reliance on craft, patterns, use of gold and/or other metal work

5 Goals of Art Nouveau: -modernizing design - the eclectic historical styles that had previously been popular. - Artists drew inspiration from both organic and geometric forms, evolving elegant designs that united flowing, natural forms with more angular contours. - abolish the traditional hierarchy of the arts, which viewed so-called liberal arts, such as painting and sculpture, as superior to craft-based decorative arts, and ultimately it had far more influence on the latter.

26 Blasphemous! KLIMT AND THE KISS WERE MINTED.
In 2003, Austria released a commemorative 100 Euro coin that had a etching of The Kiss on one side, and a portrait of Klimt at work in his studio on the other.  Blasphemous! THE PIECE REFLECTS A COLLISION OF ARTISTIC STYLES.  The pose of the lovers depicted in The Kiss reflects the natural forms favored in the Vienna Art Nouveau (of Vienna Jugendstil) movement. But the simple forms with the bold patterns of the pair's cloaks shows the impact of the Arts and Crafts movement, while the use of spirals harkens back to Bronze Age art.

29 Short Story on a Painting of Gustav Klimt                                                Lawrence Ferlinghetti
They are kneeling upright on a flowered bed     He  has just caught her there                                   and holds her still        Her gown  has slipped down  off her shoulder       He has an urgent hunger    His dark head  bends to hers hungrily  And the woman the woman       turns her tangerine lips from his              one hand like the head of a dead swan                     draped down over  his heavy neck                        the fingers                           strangely crimped                                       tightly together         her other arm doubled up                        against her tight breast                             her hand a languid claw                                                          clutching his hand                                 which would turn her mouth  to his         her long dress made                               of multicolored blossoms                                      quilted on gold         her Titian hair                      with blues stars in it         And his gold                            harlequin robe                                              checkered with                                                          dark squares         Gold garlands                       stream down over                                               her bare calves &                                                   tensed feet 

30 Nearby there must be                  a jeweled tree                          with glass leaves aglitter                              in the gold air  It must be                 morning                             in a faraway place somewhere  They         are slient together                                   as in a flowered field             upon the summer couch                                   which must be hers    And he holds her still                                   so passionately          holds her head to his                               so gently so insistently             to make her turn                                 her lips to his  Her eyes are closed                                like folded petals  She       will not open                          He                              is not the One
