Fact About When Created
Term adopted by the Dutch pioneer of abstract art, Mondrian, for his own type of abstract painting. From Dutch de nieuwe beelding. Basically means new art (painting and sculpture are plastic arts). Also applied to the work of De Stijl circle of artists, at least up to Mondrian's secession from the group in 1923. -
When Created
De Stijl (Dutch pronunciation: [də ˈstɛɪl], English: /də ˈstaɪl/), Dutch for "The Style", also known as neoplasticism, was a Dutch artistic movement founded in 1917. In a narrower sense, the term De Stijl is used to refer to a body of work from 1917 to 1931 founded in the Netherlands.[1][2] De Stijl is also the name of a journal that was published by the Dutch painter, designer, writer, and critic Theo van Doesburg (1883–1931), propagating the group's theories. Next to van Doesburg, the group's -
Another Fact
linkProponents of De Stijl sought to express a new utopian ideal of spiritual harmony and order. They advocated pure abstraction and universality by a reduction to the essentials of form and colour; they simplified visual compositions to the vertical and horizontal directions, and used only primary colors along with black and white. Indeed, according to the Tate Gallery's online article on neoplasticism, Mondrian himself sets forth these delimitations in his essay 'Neo-Plasticism in Pictorial Art'. -
About Neo-Plasticism
Founded by Theo van Doesburg, Neoplasticism was a Dutch movement in painting and sculpture that strived to produce pure form and color, completely devoid of realism and the artist’s emotion. Another leading figure of the movement was Piet Mondrian who published the manifesto, Neo-Plasticism in 1920. Mondrian believed that abstraction was intellectually pure and natural and that linear, vertical and horizontal arrangements were inherently harmonious. Neoplasticism also applied to the work of -
Mondrain
Feeling that Analytical Cubism did not go far enough, did not represent pure reality, Mondrian developed Neo-Plasticism (1917-1928). His new style reflected the desire for standardization in the contemporary machine age. Its precision and purity were perfect for the “new man” in Utopian society. Mondrian worked in artistic solitude. *** Mondrian believed that abstraction was intellectually pure and “natural” and that linear, vertical and horizontal arrangements were inherently harmonious. -
Peit
Term coined by PIET MONDRIAN and first used in 1919 as the title of a collection of his writings published by the dealer L?once Rosenberg. It gained currency as a descriptive term applied to Mondrian's theories of art and to his style of painting, in which a grid, delineated by black lines, was filled with blocks of primary colour (see fig.). The original term applied to some of his principles was nieuwe beelding (new imagery); he also used abstract-re?le schilderkunst (abstract-real painting) a -
