How af Klint's early drawings rose from spiritual practices conducted with friends: the first volume in a beautiful new catalogue raisonné

Tremulations präsentiert Objekte aus dem Archiv des Swedenborg-Hauses sowie Schriften und Kunstwerke u.a. von Marcel Duchamp, Meret Oppenheim, Yayoi Kusama und Apichatpong Weerasethakul. Die Publikation stellt die Orthodoxien des institutionellen Kuratierens in Frage und nimmt dabei wenig Rücksicht auf die traditionellen Formen der Kategorisierung der Welt. Sie kombiniert Elemente aus dem Archiv des Swedenborg-Hauses, darunter die Ohrknochen des Mystikers Emanuel Swedenborg, mit Werken der modernen und zeitgenössischen Kunst und Literatur. Der Katalog ist nach Swedenborgs "Neun Regeln der Tremulation" gegliedert und wird in Kapiteln unterteilt, die sich im physischen, zeitlichen und virtuellen Raum des Swedenborg-Hauses manifestieren. Swedenborgs Regeln sind ein Schema, um historische und zeitgenössische Formen der Verbreitung und Übertragung zu erforschen: Spiegelbilder, Träume, Reflexionen, divinatorische Visionen, Phantasien, Erinnerungen, Prophezeiungen und Halluzinationen sowie filmische Projektionsformen, die sich älterer Vermittlungstechnologien als Fernsehen und Video bedienen, sowie postkinematische und virtuelle Formen: The Bridge von Mark Leckey; Hilma af Klint: The Temple und It will End in Stars von Nathalie Djurberg & Hans Berg.

Hilma af Klint is now regarded as a pioneer of abstract art. Her work from the early 20th century predates the first purely abstract paintings by Kandinsky, Mondrian and Malevich. Now, for the first time, af Klint's works, some 1,600 in all, have been collected in a Catalogue Raisonné. Af Klint's work should be seen and appreciated in the series of paintings often depicting specific themes and this ground-breaking publication, divided into seven volumes, allows for this. This final volume presents Hilma af Klint's splendour as a painter of landscapes, portraits and botanical works. Produced with the permission of the Hilma af Klint Foundation and featuring introductions by Daniel Birnbaum and Kurt Almqvist, a separate slip cased edition containing all seven volumes will be available in autumn 2021.
