Hilma af Klint: Artist and Visionary<\/a>
\n15 October 2026 – 7 February 2027
\nRooms 6-10 at the National Gallery of Ireland in Dublin, Ireland<\/p>\n

Hilma af Klint<\/a> (1862-1944) is recognised as one of Europe\u2019s foremost abstract painters and is one of Sweden\u2019s most celebrated modern artists. This exhibition, developed in partnership with the Hilma af Klint Foundation, features paintings, drawings and watercolours, marking the first major exhibition dedicated to the artist\u2019s work in Ireland. Af Klint\u2019s art was profoundly informed by spirituality and her explorations of Rosicrucianism, Theosophy, and Anthroposophy. (…) While portraiture and illustration provided a source of income, Hilma af Klint\u2019s spiritual paintings – the \u2018great work\u2019 – were seldom shown beyond her close circle. Her vast body of work remained in storage until the 1980s, largely unknown outside Sweden.<\/p>\n
