A pixel circuit of an organic EL display includes an EL device, first and second switching devices, a driving thin film transistor, and a capacitor. The first switching device switches data voltages applied to data lines in response to the selection signal applied to a scan line and the second switching device connects gate and drain of the driving thin film transistor in response to a compensation signal applied to a compensation line. The driving thin film transistor supplies electric current to the organic EL device in response to the data voltage inputted to a gate from the first switching device and the capacitor maintains the data voltage applied to the gate of the driving thin film transistor for a predetermined period. At this time, the characteristic deviation of the transistor is compensated by connecting the gate and the drain of the driving thin film transistor by applying the compensation signal to the compensation line before applying the data voltage, and then the data voltages are applied to the data lines after cutting off the compensation signal. In this manner, the characteristic deviation of the driving thin film transistors can be compensated.
