Klimpt

I really enjoyed the line about measuring success by the number of hats still on people's heads. It was pretty cool to see how Klimpt also used Chinese styles into his art.

In coffee house philosophy, people deemed philosophy to be simply rubbish, of no importance. It was quite funny to think that an artist (I' m pretty sure he was an artist) would say such a thing since, in my opinion, art heavily relies on philosophy, since philosophy allows one to think in new and near-existentialistic ways. But at the time, I guess art was considered more of a set of rules than a freedom of expression.
