After Piet Mondrian – Victory Boogie Woogie

Piet Mondrian is famous for his abstract geometric paintings and his contributions to the De Stijl movement in the early 20th century. The painter developed a pared-down aesthetic schema that featured squares and rectangles of only black, white, and primary colors, all separated by strictly straight lines. Mondrian developed his unique style in accordance with the ideas of fellow De Stijl founder Theo Van Doesburg: It embraced spirituality and harmony and pushed painting beyond representation, into a realm of pure form and material. Mondrian’s work proved to be enormously influential in the development of 20th-century styles and movements such as colour field painting, abstract expressionism and minimalism, his paintings belong in the collections of institutions including the MoMA, the Fondation Beyeler, the Guggenheim Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Kunstmuseum Den Haag, among others. His work has sold for eight figures on the secondary market.
