Mondrian (Piet Mondrian)

Piet Mondrian was a Dutch artist known for his abstract paintings characterized by a grid of black lines and blocks of primary colors—red, blue, and yellow—plus white and black. His work evolved from figurative art to a style called De Stijl, emphasizing simplicity, harmony, and balance. Mondrian aimed to express universal order and spirituality through his geometric compositions, reducing forms to their essential elements. His art influences modern design and architecture, inspiring a sense of clarity and structure in visual aesthetics.
