Explore the disciplined and dynamic art of Piet Mondrian (1872-1944), the Dutch modernist who transformed observations of nature into an abstract language of straight lines, primary colors, and carefully balanced relationships. This pocket guide traces his development from atmospheric landscapes and trees to the iconic grid paintings that became symbols of modern design. Discover what to look for in Mondrian's asymmetry, proportion, rhythm, white space, and subtle variations of line and color. Biographical insights, engaging anecdotes, a personal portrait, and memorable quotations reveal the spiritual and philosophical ideas underlying his apparent simplicity. A spotlight on one defining masterpiece examines how even the smallest adjustment can alter the energy of an entire composition. With more than 65 full-color reproductions, this beautifully designed volume offers a clear introduction to an artist whose radical pursuit of harmony influenced painting, architecture, fashion, typography, and visual culture worldwide.
