Hilma af Klint: What Stands Behind the Flowers
Af Klint’s exquisitely rendered botanical portfolio reveals a deep spiritual engagement with the flora of her native Sweden.
Published in conjunction with the first public exhibition of this rare Nature Studies portfolio, Hilma af Klint: What Stands Behind the Flowers presents the drawings alongside contextualizing artworks and translations of the artist’s previously unpublished writings. An overview essay by curator Jodi Hauptman explores af Klint’s portfolio and the circumstances of its creation; texts by Ewa Lajer-Burcharth, Laura Neufeld and Lena Struwe unpack the imagery, materiality and botanical knowledge behind these works.
