Description
Hilma af Klint Catalogue Raisonné Volume VII: Landscapes, Portraits and Miscellaneous Works (1886-1940) showcases the revolutionary contributions of Hilma af Klint, who is now regarded as a pioneer of abstract art. Her work from the early 20th century predates the first purely abstract paintings by Kandinsky, Mondrian, and Malevich.
For the first time, af Klint's oeuvre, comprising approximately 1,600 works, has been comprehensively collected in a Catalogue Raisonné. Her art should be seen and appreciated in series that often depict specific themes, and this groundbreaking publication, divided into seven volumes, allows for such an appreciation. This final volume presents Hilma af Klint's splendour as a painter of landscapes, portraits, and botanical works.
Produced with the permission of the Hilma af Klint Foundation and featuring introductions by Daniel Birnbaum and Kurt Almqvist, a separate slip-cased edition containing all seven volumes will be available in autumn 2021.
