Description
Piet Mondrian's influential essays on art theory are collected in this facsimile edition of New Design. Written for the De Stijl journal and later published as part of the Bauhausbücher series, these selected works showcase Mondrian's philosophical approach to art as a figurative expression of human existence. Mondrian explores the relationship between painting and architecture, envisioning a future where Neoplasticism revolutionizes design and architecture worldwide. This compilation presents Harry Holtzman's renowned translations of Mondrian's essays in their entirety for the first time, accompanied by a brief scholarly commentary. The publication is faithful to the original 1925 German edition, offering a unique insight into Mondrian's thought process and artistic vision.
