Visionary Canvas: The Birth of Abstract Art

Hilma af Klint was a Swedish artist who pioneered abstract painting around 1906, long before it became a mainstream movement. Influenced by theosophy and spiritualism, she believed her vibrant, symbolic works channeled higher truths, creating a revolutionary art form that reshaped creative expression. Hidden for decades, her paintings stunned the world when showcased at the Guggenheim in 2018, cementing her legacy as a trailblazer in art history.
