Por la autora de Los amantes de Praga, Alyson Richman
Principios del siglo XX. El mundo está dominado por hombres y el ámbito artÃstico en Estocolmo no es una excepción. Hilma af Klint, cansada de no encontrar un espacio para desarrollarse, convoca cada viernes por la noche a un enigmático grupo de artistas --Anna, Cornelia, Sigrid y Mathilda-- para crear su propia red de apoyo emocional y artÃstico. Las Cinco, como se hacen llamar, se internan en un territorio desconocido cuando Hilma y Anna incursionan en el ocultismo, esperando que a través de sesiones espiritistas puedan canalizar espÃritus que las ayuden a expandir su potencial como pintoras.
Más de un siglo después en Nueva York, el curador del Museo Guggenheim, Eben Elliot, exhibe la obra de Hilma af Klint y con ello revela secretos sobre Las Cinco y el oscuro y cuestionable financiamiento del arte moderno. Una apasionante novela que explora el destino, la pasión y los hilos que conectaron a cinco mujeres mientras desafiaban las tradiciones artÃsticas y sociales de su época.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
From the author of The Lost Wife, Alyson Richman
At the beginning of the 20th century, the world is dominated by men, and the artistic scene in Stockholm is no exception. Hilma af Klint, tired of not finding a space to develop, gathers an enigmatic group of artists -- Anna, Cornelia, Sigrid, and Mathilda -- every Friday night to create their own network of emotional and artistic support. The Five, as they call themselves, venture into unknown territory when Hilma and Anna delve into the occult, hoping that through spiritualist sessions they can channel spirits to help them expand their potential as painters.
More than a century later in New York, Guggenheim Museum curator Eben Elliot exhibits Hilma af Klint's work, revealing secrets about The Five and the dark and questionable funding of modern art. This captivating novel explores destiny, passion, and the threads that connected five women as they challenged the artistic and social traditions of their time.
