Description
The project of Hilma af Klint and her female colleagues was the result of great maturity, of
confidence and collective efforts, performed both in work and in life. (Women's Art Journal)The
concentrated spirituality- egoless consciousness- that is delivered by the best pictures here, so
fresh that they might have been made this morning or tomorrow or decades from now, feels like
news that is new again. (Peter Schjedahl New Yorker)The current celebration of af Klint's paintings
suggests the primacy of visual communication should be backdated. The retrospective also
underscores the important role that women played in its emergence. (Nancy Princenthal Art in
America)The Guggenheim Museum offers a revisionary chapter about the start of modern
abstraction in its current headliner, “Hilma af Klint: Paintings for the Future,― introducing
works that this Swedish artist and mystic made in 1906-7. (Roberta Smith New York Times)af
Klint's contribution, arrayed here in all its abundant originality, threatens to reduce to a footnote the

apocalyptic time, we need af Klintâ€s work now more than ever, and the purity of vision and
intent it represents. (Ann McCoy Brooklyn Rail)A week after I saw [af Klint's paintings], their
pulsing loveliness remains undimmed in my mind, like a self-replenishing sense memory of
summer. (Sebastian Smee Washington Post) Tracey Bashkoff is Director of Collections and
