The London College of Psychic Studies has an excellent collection of Georgiana Houghton paintings. This Victorian medium, like Hilma af Klint, who I have mentioned in earlier posts, is just one undead rival to Kandinsky's place as the first abstract artist in the West. An exhibition of her spirit drawings, such as the one on the right called 'Glory be to God' is on display this summer at The Courtauld Institute in London 16 June - 11 September, 2016. |
