'Hilma af Klint: Paintings for the Future' opens tomorrow at the Guggenheim!

Curated by Tracey Bashkoff, the first major American museum exhibition of the visionary Swedish painter Hilma af Klint opens tomorrow at the Guggenheim, and all the art world's abuzz. "The exhibition makes an airtight case for Klint’s being the first modernist artist to paint entirely abstract," Jerry Saltz writes in New York Magazine's culture site, Vulture, going on to describe "over 160 of some of the most beguilingly uncanny and imaginative works of the last century. They amount to cosmic sonograms of unseen forces in Klint’s very large, iridescently colored canvases with their biomorphic shapes, auras, algae blooms of color, arabesque jellyfish tentacles coiling, geometric configurations, all to — as she put it — 'awaken humanity' to unseen astral-transcendental otherness." We cannot recommend the accompanying exhibition catalog highly enough. Featured image is "Group IX/UW, The Dove, No. 1" (1915) from the SUW/UW Series.
