Hilma af Klint : Visionary - Kurt Almqvist & Louise Belfrage

Hilma af Klint: Visionary by Kurt Almqvist and Louise Belfrage is a beautifully curated art book that highlights one of the most pioneering figures in abstract art.

Through rich imagery and thoughtful texts, the book explores her vibrant, symbolic works where art and spirituality are deeply intertwined. It offers a nuanced perspective on her life, creative process, and the ideas that shaped her vision—revealing how far ahead of her time she truly was.  An inspiring book for anyone who wants to discover, or rediscover, Hilma af Klint’s unique and visionary universe.

Hilma af Klint's works have taken the international art world by storm, more than one hundred years after they were created.

Around the turn of the 20th century, the new spiritual and social movements of theosophy and later anthroposophy came to inspire the pioneers of modernism and abstract art Kandinsky, Mondrian, Malevich and Hilma af Klint. What was the zeitgeist that inspired such an artistic explosion?
This anthology is based on a seminar held at the Solomon R Guggenheim Museum in New York at the opening of its highly-acclaimed exhibition Hilma af Klint: Paintings for the Future in October 2018.
