Question

The Abstract Futures tarot deck was produced by a feminist art collective named after this artist’s “ghost.” For 10 points each:

[10h] Name this artist of three paintings titled Altarpiece, one of which depicts a radiant orb above a rainbow pyramid. This Theosophist was inspired by the “High Masters” to create the Paintings for the Temple.

ANSWER: Hilma af Klint [prompt on Hilma’s Ghost]

[10e] A series from Klint’s Paintings for the Temple titled after these animals includes a painting of two of them colored black and white. Leonardo da Vinci sketched two depictions of Leda with one of these animals.

ANSWER: swans [accept Leda and the Swan; prompt on birds or avians]

[10m] Description acceptable. Klint represented these entities with various organic forms in her series The Ten Largest. A guardian angel appears beside a boat in a Thomas Cole series depicting a “voyage” through four of these entities.

ANSWER: stages of life [accept equivalents like life stages or progressions of life or phases of life; prompt on stages and equivalents by asking “of what entity?”; prompt on life by asking “what aspects of life?”]
