The Museum of Non-Objective Painting

The Museum of Non-Objective Painting, founded in 1939 by American artist Piet Mondrian and others, focuses on abstract art that does not represent recognizable objects. Instead, it features works emphasizing geometric shapes, color, and composition. The museum aimed to promote art that expresses emotions and ideas through pure form, rather than through depiction of the physical world. Although it eventually became part of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, its legacy remains significant in the evolution of modern art, encouraging viewers to appreciate art for its intrinsic qualities rather than its representational content.
