Mondrian 1927 vs. Mondrian 1969



Piet Mondrian, Composition II with Yellow, Red and Blue 1927




YSL, Mondrian Day Dress 1969

 

Piet Mondrian was a pure abstract artist which means his work had no representation of any real world thing. However, sometimes the colors depicted in pure abstraction art can represent feelings or emotions that were felt by the artist. Pure abstraction art was primarily made up of shapes like squares and rectangles.The first image shown is Mondrian's Composition II with Yellow, Red and Blue which is composed of primary colors and black and white which is the most basic color pallet anyone could have. The second image is of a dress from Yves Saint Laurent's first collection. This dress is called the Mondrian Day Dress which is based off of the first piece of art that was shown. This dress is very geometrical and it has the same color pallete like Mondrian's pieces of art.
