About the Item

Group IV, no 3. The Ten Largest, Youth (1907), 2018 75% New Zealand wool, 25% silk. Hand knotted Edition of 10 Biomorphic / Bright and Vivid Colors / Rug / Scandinavian Furniture and Design / Handcrafted Furniture and Design Produced by Asplund in collaboration with the Hilma af Klint Foundation. Hilma af Klint: The Temple Series Collection Her vision extended beyond the conceptual framework of her time, into a cosmos that was previously unknown. She injected her ideas into the works in the Temple Series, which she began working on in 1906, and considered to be her own spiritual last will and testament. This would prove to be Hilma af Klint’s (1862–1944) personal breakthrough, and a life-determining crossroads. However, the world at large remained oblivious to her achievements for decades. This is one of six fine rugs featuring motifs from the series, translated into textile form. Paintings for the Future, October 12, 2018 - February 3, 2019, at Guggenheim in New York. This fall, Hilma af Klint is set to be the first Swedish artist ever to be featured at New York’s art venue par excellence, the Guggenheim, where her Temple Series will be prominently placed within its famous spiral galleries. These 193 paintings were made between 1906 and 1915, and visually summarise a new, dualistic description of creation and the universe. The series is based on the ideas of the spiritual and intellectual movements of the times, reinterpreting them as peculiar, abstract symbolic paintings. These are probably the earliest fully non-depictive artworks in the modern era. A few years later, Picasso and Braque would make their first cubist paintings. Asplund has developed a limited edition of hand-knotted rugs in collaboration with the Hilma af Klint Foundation, which CFHILL has been granted the exclusive rights to sell. Their studio is located in the Indian carpet district of Mirzapur, which is famous for the skill of its craftspeople and its high standards in terms of workers’ conditions. The yarns, which consist of New Zealand wool, silk and viscose, have been dyed to match her characteristic shades: violet, warm red, pink, blue, and dark grey. –In Sweden, we have grown accustomed to interiors decorated with fantastic rugs. This is much thanks to the efforts of geniuses like Josef Frank and Barbro Nilsson. Hilma af Klint’s oeuvre is so powerful that it can be easily materialised as a wall hanging, or on the floor, without losing any of its impact. A piece like this lends a warm, spiritual mood to the entire room. These carpets feel like classics already, says Michael Storåkers of CFHILL. – We’ve been working on this project for almost two years, looking for a way to produce rugs with the right colours and the correct reproductions of the patterns, and we’re incredibly proud of the results and the quality of these products. We are greatly honoured to have been trusted with this task by the Hilma af Klint Foundation, comments Asplund.
