Class Recap
For this semester that I learned lots of see sideways inside mind, comes from my brain through my eyes. It was a tough experience for doing the part and a challenge to find my weakness and findings, once I get better and my footing then I know where am I doing right now. After this blogs made by class requirement helped myself to type anything. Other than that this class is also interesting experience to do the "visualization" minder. And it was fun class and its worth for me to take this course, I liked my teacher. Don't run away she's challenge person to talk about many things and strong feedback that show me something and I had to sit does and think real hard and found the light it shine through my eyes, it was right there that I feel comfortable. Happy Holidays!

Modern Artist: Piet Mondrian
Composition with Red, Yellow, and Blue is characteristic of the artist’s later work, for which he is best known. Mondrian created a new style called Neoplasticism, based on some of the ideas of the cubists. He created a series of almost identical geometric paintings based on a theory of universal harmony. Neoplasticism is the theory and practice of the de Stijl group, chiefly characterized by an emphasis on the formal structure of a work of art, and restriction of spatial or linear relations to vertical and horizontal movements as well as restriction of the artist's palette to black, white, and the primary colors.
Mondrian, Piet (Pieter Cornelis Mondriaan) 1872–1944, Dutch painter, who carried abstraction to its furthest limits. He developed "neoplastic" aesthetic involving reduction of paintings to elements of straight lines, primary colors, non colors. Mondrian became the most radical abstractionist artist of his era. Mondrian’s work became increasingly nonrepresentational, until his compositions such as Composition with Red, Yellow, and Blue above, which consists of flat planes of the three primary colors broken by black lines. In this new art form (Neoplasticism) Mondrian’s goal was to eliminate all traces of representation in favor of balanced compositions of primary color and vertical and horizontal lines. In other word, Neoplasticism represents the absolute elements—primary colors and vertical and horizontal lines—that underlie all appearances. He used vertical and horizontal lines to show that the canvas was a place consisting of right angles. His achievement of balance between unequal parts affected the direction of art, architecture, and industrial design. The movement associated with Mondrian’s style was named "de Stijl," after the magazine he formed in 1917.
Mondrian embarked on an artistic career over his family's objections, studying at the Amsterdam Academy of Fine Arts. He moved progressively from semi naturalism through increased abstraction, arriving finally at a style in which he limited himself to small vertical and horizontal brushstrokes. His belief that a canvas—a plane surface—should contain only planar elements led to his abolition of all curved lines in favor of straight lines and right angles. When Mondrian moved to New York City in 1940, his style became freer and more rhythmic, and he abandoned severe black lines in favor of lively chain-link patterns of bright colors, particularly notable in his last complete masterwork, Broadway Boogie-Woogie (1942-1943, Museum of Modern Art, New York City).
Mondrian was one of the most influential 20th-century artists. His theories of abstraction and simplification not only altered the course of painting but also exerted a profound influence on architecture, industrial design, and the graphic arts. Mondrian died in New York on February 1, 1944.
