Everything/Anything and…Chess…"Despite the documented evidence by chess historian HJR Murray, I've always thought that chess was invented by a goddess"–George Koltanowski: from the foreword to:"Women in chess, players of the Modern Age"

Piet Mondrian

30/06/2007 by Nikita

I like the style of Piet Mondrian. It looks great and it is different. You can play with the cubus-style and colours the way you want and I’ve discovered that primary school children love this style!

‘Mondrian’
Dress
Yves Saint Laurent
1965
Paris, France
Museum no. T.369-1974
Given by Yves Saint Laurent

This cocktail dress is from the Mondrian collection, inspired by the 1920s abstract paintings by the Dutch artist of the same name. It was featured on the front of French Vogue in September 1965 and many cheaper copies were produced for the mass market.

    Hi there, I’d REALLY like to know the name of the composition by mondrian you have posted here:

    its the one with the large red shape in the top-right region of the painting. a name would be great 🙂

    Hi Grace!
    I’m really sorry, I found it on the internet (web) and there wasn’t a name attached to it! In future, if I ever posted art-stuff on my blog, I will make sure that I do post the title too, but the ones that are now on my blog, don’t have names, as far as I can remember…. well, I mean where I found it.

    The title of that painting is “Composition II in Red, Blue and Yelow, 1930.”

      hi Kaalvoet, baie dankie! Ek het nie weer gesoek vir die titel nie. Ek het bietjie “genoeg” gehad van ou Piet…lol! Ek weet nie wat is die mense so erg agter hom aan nie, seker soos die tyd toe ek na hom en sy skilderye gesoek het. 🙂

    Wel, sy werk is dalk eenvoudig en sommiges sien dit nie as kuns nie, maar ek hou nog steeds baie daarvan.

      hi Kaalvoet, Baie beslis hou ek baie van sy kuns, ek raak net moeg om hierdie inskrywing in my “top poste” te sien, want mense kliek vreeslik op die link en dit raak bietjie “boring” – 🙂 dis al wat ek bedoel het. Maar dis omdat ek ‘n verskeidenheid van sy werke in hierdie inskrywing ook het. Ken jy vir Paul Klee? Sekere tye van die jaar dan’s daardie inskrywing weer hoog op die “top poste” want dan is al wat ‘n laerskool-onnie is agter voorbeelde aan van kinders wat hom naboots en ek het my kinders (y5’s) se art hier iewers waar hulle hom namaak. Ek hou baie van sy werke ook, maar wanneer ek Paul Klee vir 3 maande of meer op “top poste” sien, dan raak ek moeg – nes vir ou Piet hier. 🙂

    Neoplastic movement shouldn’t be transformed into architecture literally, but abstractly. It’s a way of painting; it inspires architecture and not copies it. A great example would be the Schroeder House.

    Hi RC, Welcome to my blog and thanks for the visit/message. I like the use of colours in Schroeder House.
