Abstract
In experiments with Cubism, the Dutch painter Piet Mondrian transformed reality into a geometrically rhythmic surface. Meditative immersion in the essence of the painter's message led him to the flat structures of "geometric abstraction".
He found the intensity of the expression in the sober structure of vertically intersecting lines on a white surface and the colors red, blue and yellow inserted into them. He inspired not only the De Stijl group, but also the architecture and lifestyle of the 20th century.
