"Through Color to Form"

Vorhang, Gerd Wagner, 24"x36", Watercolor on paper, 1966

"Through Color to Form" is a rare large-scale public exhibition of the work of Gerard Wagner (1906-1999). Wagner, an German-born English painter, based his art on the ideas of Rudolf Steiner (1861–1925), the founder of anthroposophy. This landmark exhibition will feature over 35 of Wagner’s paintings spanning from the 1940s through the 1980s.

With this new exhibition of Gerard Wagner's art, Lightforms continues exploring the influence of Rudolf Steiner on 20th century artists, an endeavor first started when Lightforms exhibited the work of Hilma af Klint (1862-1944) in 2020. Although there are numerous artists that Steiner influenced, Hilma Af Klint is presently among the most well-known artists to have studied personally with Rudolf Steiner.
