The tendency of aesthetic idealism 1918

"The tendency of aesthetic idealism," a 1918 painting by Italian artist Julius Evola, showcases the artist’s exploration of abstract forms and their interplay. Evola was a prolific writer and philosopher known for his work in esotericism and traditionalism. The painting demonstrates his artistic interests in non-representational art, featuring a field of pale hues. Geometric shapes and irregular strokes interweave across the composition, forming a dynamic and evocative composition. Evola’s abstract approach was a departure from the traditional, offering a visual exploration of ideas rather than objective representation.
