Poster: Hilma af Klint, The Tree of Knowledge, No. 5

Discover Hilma af Klint's groundbreaking abstract art with this colorful poster of the work Tree of Knowledge, No. 5.

Hilma af Klint (1862–1944) was a pioneer of abstract art, leaving figurative painting behind as early as 1906. When she painted, she was in contact with a higher consciousness that spoke through her. In her remarkable, colorful works, geometric shapes and symbols are combined with ornamental elements. Her multi-layered visual world addresses different dimensions of existence, where the microcosm and macrocosm reflect each other.
