The 2019 documentary about #HilmaAfKlint infuriates as much as when first seen. NYC's MoMa refusing to include her (1906) abstract art in HIStory of #AbstractArt, supposedly existing from 1910 onwards only.
Talk of the men's timid steps toward the abstract, and her boldness so much ahead of others, and her spirituality.
111 paintings in 1 year, 3 days per painting.
