Sometimes I miss out the mornings painting session and instead study my Japanese books in the open. – Gustav Klimt
Whoever wants to know something about me – as an artist which alone is significant – they should look attentively at my pictures and there seek to recognise what I am and what I want. – Gustav Klimt
There is nothing that special to see when looking at me. Im a painter who paints day in day out, from morning till evening – figure pictures and landscapes, more rarely portraits. – Gustav Klimt
Mistakes, scandals, and failures no longer signal catastrophe. The crucial thing is that they be made credible, and that the public be made aware of the efforts being expended in that direction. The marketing immunity of governments is similar to that of the major brands of washing powder. – Jean Baudrillard
