Collection: Hilma Af Klint

Hilma af Klint was a Swedish artist and mystic whose paintings were the first Western abstract art known to the current art community. Some even said she invented abstract art. She died in 1944 at the age of 81 leaving behind more than 1,000 paintings which she kept hidden during her lifetime. A considerable body of her abstract work predates the first purely abstract compositions by Kandinsky.
