"Group IX/SUW, The Swan, No. 1," Hilma af Klint, 1915.

I've talked about Hilma af Klint before, but in case I have new followers....she's the REAL inventor of Abstract art. Af Klint was a Swedish mystic who painted her visions to illustrate her spiritual ideas.

Here's a classic representation...the two swans, white and black, contrasted, and yet touching. It's almost a Western variation on the yin/yang, an illustration of the dualities in life touching and uniting.

Hilma af Klint's art is worth looking into. It could be colorful and flamboyant, weird and inaccessible, sophisticated and childlike all at once, and always compelling. I need to learn more about her spiritual ideas to see more of them in her work, which is fascinating enough on its own. Knowing her art was a reflection of her spirituality only gives it more depth.

From the Moderna Museet, Stockholm.
