Le livre et l’exposition “Number, Rhythm, Change – Emma Kunz and Contemporary Art” accordent une attention particulière au travail de l’artiste et radiesthésiste suisse Emma Kunz (1892-1963), qui, avec plus de 400 dessins sur papier millimétré, connecte art et thérapie, traduction d’états humains. En collaboration avec les œuvres de douze artistes contemporains internationaux et des textes de divers auteurs, une salle de résonance est créée dans laquelle la vision holistique et spirituelle d’Emma Kunz en tant que contribution aux discussions actuelles devient claire. Le réseau associatif, dont les coordonnées sont déterminées par des domaines aussi divers que la théorie sociale, la technologie, l’histoire naturelle, la phénoménologie ou la cybernétique, permet des expériences transfrontalières.

"Abstract paintings were being produced even before Kandinsky. Completely independently from each other, Georgiana Houghton (1814-1884) in England, Hilma af Klint (1862-1944) in Sweden and Emma Kunz (1892-1963) in Switzerland developed an individual, abstract pictorial language. What they had in common was a desire to make visible the laws of nature, the intellect and the supernatural. Their works are being presented side by side for the first time in an exhibition. The three women artists all found their artistic language within the context of the spiritual movements of their times: Houghton in spiritism, af Klint in theosophy and Kunz in naturopathy. Their artworks bear witness to a 'mediumistic' praxis: Houghton and af Klint were inspired by higher beings to paint, while Kunz developed her drawings with the help of a pendulum. In addition, the volume shows stills by Harry Smith and James and John Whitney, who - inspired by various occult movements - made experimental films during the 1940s"--Publisher's website
