Coining the term “Neo-plasticism”, he pursued a style of painting composed only of primary colors against a grid of black vertical and horizontal lines and a white base background. Mondrian’s vision was that this essential painting would help to achieve a society in which art as such has no place, but rather exists for the total realization of “beauty.” With stints in Amsterdam, Paris, London, and New York, Mondrian drew upon the modern metropolis and modern music, especially jazz, as points of inspiration. In 1917, he cofounded De Stijl, originally a publication, and subsequently a circle of practitioners, committed to a strictly geometrical art of horizontals and verticals. With key works and succinct texts, this introductory book presents Mondrian's distinctive and pioneering oeuvre, an abiding inspiration for fashion, art, architecture, and design, from White Stripes album covers to Yves Saint Laurent dresses. 2016 © US Mondrian/Holtzman TrustLanguage: GermanCountry/Region of Manufacture: DEItem Height: 260mmItem Length: 210mmItem Weight: 589gAuthor: Susanne DeicherGenre: Arts & PhotographyBook Series: Basic ArtRelease Year: 2015 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
