Hilma af Klint was a Swedish artist born near Stockholm in 1862. She trained as a painter and in 1906 began making huge abstract paintings, years before the famous pioneers of abstract art, but she asked that they not be shown until 20 years after her death. She died in 1944, and her work became world famous in the 2000s.
