Mondrian: Shape, Color and line

Mondrian:

1. What is abstract art?

2. What do you think this painting by Modrian Boogie Woogie is about? Tell me something about it?

Watch the animated video of one of Mondrian's art works: Boogie Woogie

After watching the video: What do you think this painting is about or looks like?

Did the animation help you? The full title is Broadway Boogie Woogie I left off Broadway to see if you could guess, most references to this art piece drop the "Broadway" from the title.

In Broadway Boogie Woogie, Mondrian represents the restless motion of the city. Move the button underneath the painting from right to left to remove the hue (color), without altering the luminance (brightness).
