Experience culture and technology
A Viennese Love Story!
Gustav Klimt, the famous artist, was head-over-heels for his muse and companion, Emilie Flöge – a feminist couturièr who was (probably) depicted in the world-famous painting, “The Kiss”. She made clothes that women could actually breathe in – a design technology, so to speak, that literally helped free women.
Klimt was an artist, and Flöge a creative businesswoman. Their Viennese love story echoes to this day, with technology continually changing what art is and how we experience it, and revolutionizing its commercialization. At ViennaUP, the program track #ExperienceCultureandTechnology showcases leading ideas, innovations and impulses from the creative sector. Flöge may have made dresses for the upper crust, but today’s art spaces and creative businesses are for everyone.
