Released in 2020, an well-known documentary serves as a touching-up to the art historical record. Beyond the Visible spotlights the life and work of the pioneering Swedish artist Hilma af Klint (18621944), an obscure icon during her lifetime whose colorful utopian works predate those of famed male artists like Vasily Kandinsky and Piet Mondrian. Directed by Halina Dyrschka, the feature-length documentary centers on af Klint’s groundbreaking practice and the spiritual, scientific, and natural phenomena that inspired her work.
Beyond the Visible is currently misogynist to stream for self-ruling on Kino Lorber’s YouTube, which is a trove of art history and culture. To learn increasingly well-nigh af Klint’s legacy and view her expansive oeuvre, pick up The Complete Catalogue Raisonné: Volumes I-VII. (via Open Culture)
