The book follows Mondrian on his artistic journey from the Netherlands to the bustling Paris of the 1920s and 1930s and finally to New York, where he would die in 1944. Mondrian’s studios are iconic – with their white-painted walls and artfully applied areas of color they are almost works of art. The many photos of it, often by famous photographers, are just as fascinating as those of the guests Mondrian receives, also often famous artists.
The many hundreds of photos, with detailed captions, and the richly illustrated essays on the development of photography in the context of Mondrian’s work make this book a unique and valuable historical document.
This beautifully illustrated book is neither a biography nor a photobiography, but rather a visual – and at times moving – reference work in which the reader enters the world of Mondrian as a person and as an artist. IN DUTCH!
