His works, in which realism, neo-romanticism and expressionism mingle, focus on the drama of daily life.
One of his teachers was the Austrian Jewish philosopher Wilhelm Jerusalem. Wildgans was the mentor of writer Albert Drach.
The Wildganshof, a residential development in the 3rd District of Vienna, is named after him.
