希尔玛•阿夫•克林特(Hilma af Klint)现在被认为是抽象艺术的先驱之一。她在1944年去世前画了1200多幅作品,但从未在她的人类学和神秘学圈子之外公开展出。经过20年的艺术创作,她形成了独特的抽象风格,并将余生投入到宏大的绘画使命中。精神方面是希尔玛•阿夫•克林特重要的出发点,正如她的同时代画家康定斯基、马列维奇和蒙德里安一样。这些早期的现代主义者受到当时的当代神秘主义作家的影响,如布拉瓦茨基夫人、安妮•贝桑特(Annie Besant)、C.W.利德贝特(C.W. Leadbeater),当然还有阿夫•克林特的精神领袖鲁道夫•斯坦纳(Rudolf Steiner)。
Hilma af Klint is now regarded as one of the Abstract Art pioneers. She painted more than 1200 works before her death in 1944, but never showed them publicly outside her anthropological and occult circles. After twenty years of artistry she developed a distinct abstract style and devoted the rest of her life to a grand painterly mission. The spiritual aspect was the most important starting point for Hilma af Klint, just as it was for her contemporaries Kandinsky, Malevich and Mondrian. These early modernists were influenced by the then contemporary occult writers like Madame Blavatsky, Annie Besant, C.W. Leadbeater, and certainly af Klint’s spiritual leader Rudolf Steiner.
