Dr. Per Faxneld: Artist Hilma af Klint

Hilma of Klint was one of most significant artists of the last century, and her work is only now receiving the attention it deserves. She claimed her radical art was channeled from the spiritual world. Her paintings reflect her profound belief of divinity in all things. Join Dr. Faxneld for a tour of the occult milieu she was part of in Sweden. We will encounter an occultist king, poets receiving verses from the dead, an alchemist playwright, and other significant figures of the period’s cultural life. Swedenborg Library Chicago co-sponsor.
