What is "Secession"?
Secession was an art movement that started in the late 19th century, mainly in Austria and Germany. It was a reaction against traditional art rules and styles. Artists in this movement aimed to create art that was different from usual methods and explored new, original approaches. Main figures included Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele, who used bold colors and unusual subjects to express personal and emotional themes. The artist of the secession movement aimed to represent modern art and design, reflecting a sense of independence and a desire to go beyond the limits of the norms of their time.
