Mediumisticart.com invites you to celebrate the art of visionaries, mediums, psychics and the spiritually inspired. Recent attention from the art world has paved the way for mediumistic and visionary artists such as Hilma af Klint, Georgiana Houghton and Emma Kunz to evoke awe and respect from a wider audience. This website aims to document the history of this previously overlooked genre of art and along the way rediscover its creators who offer a tantalising glimpse into the otherworldly.
Visit our artists page for further information on individual creators and their contribution to the overall history of spirit inspired art. You’ll find many incredible images and a wealth of biographical details. This category will continually be updated as further research reveals exciting new discoveries that will undoubtedly come to light.
We welcome names of artists you think should be represented on this website. Please send examples of images to info@mediumisticart.com. We are also interested in seeing anonymous works which we can endeavour to identify. Research is one of our main aims for mediumisticart.com.
Don’t forget to check out the interviews and articles in our discovering collections series which investigates collections of otherworldly art, photographs and artefacts from around the globe.
Other categories include exhibitions and events which will offer a comprehensive list of shows or gatherings that have taken place since the mid 19th century to the present day which have given a platform to mediumistic art. It will also include future events so please send in press releases or relevant details.
Our publications page will record books, articles, news and exhibition reviews that include the spiritually inspired as well as scholarly papers on the subject. Over time we hope that this will develop into a hub of thoughts and debates on spirit art and in particular its contribution to art history.
We also encourage you to keep updated by following our Instagram @mediumisticart and if you’re in need of some wonderful visual meditation visit our YouTube channel.
