Piet Mondrian:
Piet Mondrian, born in the Netherlands in 1872 and died in New York in 1944, was a central figure in abstract art and a co-founder of the De Stijl movement. Mondrian's radical reduction of form and color to horizontal and vertical lines, as well as his use of primary colors, revolutionized 20th-century art. These clear geometric forms and colors, which he termed "Neoplasticism," were intended to express a universal harmony. His approach is similar to that of Kazimir Malevich, who, with his "Black Square" (1915), also sought absolute abstraction in order to represent a spiritual truth beyond the visible.
Mondrian's work also had close connections to the Bauhaus movement, particularly to Wassily Kandinsky and Paul Klee. While Kandinsky explored emotional and spiritual content in his abstract compositions, Mondrian focused on the principle of order and harmony by reducing painting to its most fundamental elements. Both artists, however, shared the belief that abstract forms and colors could convey a deeper, transcendent experience. Paul Klee's playful exploration of form and color also shows parallels to Mondrian's work, especially in the search for a universal visual vocabulary.
A decisive influence of Mondrian also extended to architecture and design, particularly the works of Gerrit Rietveld, another member of the De Stijl movement. Rietveld's iconic Rietveld-Schröder House (1924) directly translates Mondrian's strict geometric lines and primary colors into architecture. This combination of art and architecture illustrates the vision of the De Stijl movement, which sought to unite art and life, much like the Bauhaus movement pursued by architects such as Walter Gropius.
Mondrian's influence extends into the post-war period, particularly on artists like Yves Klein, who, with his monochrome works, pushed the idea of reducing form and color to its extreme. Mondrian's rigorous abstraction and his focus on the essential also inspired minimalists like Donald Judd, who translated his concepts into three-dimensional art. Mondrian's search for universal harmony in art remains a central contribution to the development of modern art and continues to influence numerous artists today.

Seller's Story
We have been operating several online shops in the art trade for over 20 years. On the one hand, we specialize in rare art prints, exhibition posters and collectible reproductions, and on the other hand, we trade in art editions and originals by well-known contemporary artists.
The works we offer all come from the respective publishers, art galleries and institutions such as museums that published them in close cooperation with the artists. The works you find with us are often several decades old, in perfect or good condition and without a previous private owner.
We place particular emphasis on professional packaging. Nothing is more annoying than purchasing a rare print that arrives damaged due to poor or inadequate packaging.
If you have any questions about the works on offer, we are always happy to help you!
