{"product_id":"53642-hilma-af-klint","title":"Hilma af Klint","description":"\u003cp\u003eOnce considered an outsider artist, after her show at the Guggenheim Museum was seen by more than half a million visitors, Hilma af Klint firmly established her place in art history. She has also been the subject of documentary films and biographies. In 2013, Iris M\u0026uuml;ller-Westermann organized the first retrospective exhibition of af Klint\u0026rsquo;s work. Now she presents us with the latest information and research in an extensive survey show, which she curated together with Milena H\u0026oslash;gsberg, at the Moderna Museet in Malm\u0026ouml;. Of crucial importance is the issue of spirituality in af Klint\u0026rsquo;s painting\u0026mdash;how the artist managed to translate both the material and the immaterial world into a pictorial vision. The accompanying exhibition catalogue investigates, from a variety of perspectives, the question of how this trailblazing abstract artist linked her painting to a higher consciousness. Essays by art historians, a quantum physicist, a spiritual teacher, and an historian of theosophy and esotericism, among others, provide insights into a world beyond the visible which fascinates us now even more than ever.\u003cbr \/\u003e\n\u003cbr \/\u003e\nHILMA AF KLINT (1862\u0026ndash;1944) studied painting at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Stockholm. She turned to abstraction in the wake of her profound exploration of spirituality and theosophy. She is regarded as a pioneer of abstract art.\u003cbr \/\u003e\n\u003cbr \/\u003e\nEXHIBITION\u003cbr \/\u003e\nModerna Museet, Malm\u0026ouml;\u003cbr \/\u003e\nJune 16\u0026ndash;September 27, 2020 \u0026gt;\u0026gt; postponed to tbc\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44977095115016,"sku":"9783775747394","price":48.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775747394_2bf07ea7-ba5b-46e7-958f-2e8c1ac308ef.jpg?v=1744098149","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/53642-hilma-af-klint","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
