Composition No. 11
Delivery from 4 weeks
"No. 11" by Piet Mondrian, created in 1930, is a quintessential example of the Dutch artist's iconic Neo-Plasticist style. This abstract oil painting embodies Mondrian's pursuit of pure abstraction and universal visual language.
The composition consists of a white background intersected by black horizontal and vertical lines of varying thicknesses, creating a grid-like structure. Within this grid, Mondrian has placed rectangles of primary colors: red, blue, and yellow. These bold, flat areas of color contrast sharply with the white spaces and black lines.
The painting exemplifies Mondrian's theory of Neo-Plasticism, which sought to reduce visual elements to their most basic forms. By using only straight lines, right angles, and primary colors, Mondrian aimed to express the underlying structure of the universe.
The asymmetrical balance of the composition creates a dynamic tension, while the use of primary colors adds vibrancy and energy to the otherwise austere geometric design. Despite its apparent simplicity, the work invites contemplation on the relationships between form, color, and space.
"No. 11" represents Mondrian's significant contribution to abstract art and his influence on modern design, architecture, and visual culture. It encapsulates his vision of art as a means to express universal truths through the most fundamental visual elements.
