the formal lattice structures found in a canonical Mondrian painting have their origins in structures he observed in nature, particularly the spatial layering and directional visual forces found in bare tree branches. It&#8217;s not correct to say his later paintings are abstractions of trees. But they evolved from that into his classic, strict vocabulary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By late 1920, he had refined the form language of Neo-Plasticism to pure non-objective expression. Most people who encounter a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mondriantrust.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">classic Mondrian<\/a> such as <strong><em>Composition with Large Blue Plane, Red, Black, Yellow, and Gray, 1921<\/em><\/strong> read the painting as flat, but an ambiguous space is revealed when viewed in the context of their development. <strong><em>Avond; Red Tree, 1908<\/em><\/strong> reveals the origin of Mondrian&#8217;s pictorial strategy: how to achieve a sense of equilibrium among opposing visual forces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In <strong><em>Red Tree<\/em><\/strong>, Mondrian achieves this through the exploration of visual forces found in the lattice of branches. We witness a seeming dissolution of space where foreground and background are ignored. That reading of space is valid only if we use the criterion of traditional Renaissance perspective, however. By using the hot visual push of red and the cool pull of blue, Mondrian indeed develops a sense of space, albeit a decidedly non-traditional one. It is through a visual hierarchy determined by color and a latticed figure-ground relationship that it&#8217;s possible to &#8220;read&#8221; a later Mondrian as a post-perspective spatial artifact, and the early tree paintings allow us to decode it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Decoding\"><\/span>Decoding<span

orthographic drawing. This imagined state will become the seed for our modeling project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%80%A6_containing_an_infinite_reality_%E2%80%A6\"><\/span>&#8230; containing an&nbsp;<em>infinite<\/em>&nbsp;reality &#8230;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mondrian thought of his paintings as describing a fully alternative reality. To allude to the vastness of his world, he thought of his compositions the way photographers do: as cropped fragments. In the catalog accompanying the exhibition <strong>Mondrian: The Diamond Compositions<\/strong>, art historian E. A. Carmean, Jr. describes this cropping idea:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>The solution to this problem is \u2026 the idea that reality could be understood by a fragment. That Mondrian took this ontological position is most directly spelled out in a statement of 1926: &#8220;\u2026 my painting is an abstract surrogate of the whole\u2026 ,&#8221; His canvases are meant to be read \u2026 as an integral creation which shows\u2014or in Mondrian&#8217;s case corresponds with\u2014reality and emphasizes this metaphysical fact by containing only part of the whole, by being a cropped section of a continum [sic].<\/p>\n<cite>E. A. Carmean, Jr.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>He goes on to explain how Mondrian emphasizes the crop concept using the alternative format of the <strong>diamond<\/strong>, a square canvas rotated 45 degrees:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>In Mondrian&#8217;s rectangular canvases this idea is more difficult to perceive, as the horizontals and verticals parallel the framing edges, a relationship which suggests repose and containment. But the cutting lines of the diamonds make the fragmenting of reality explicit. &#8220;I think the destructive element is too much neglected in art,&#8221; Mondrian wrote to Sweeney in 1943.

a reality which he believed was both constant and always changing, a combination of immutable laws and continual energy. Painting had, in this sense, a problem; it could be composed and balanced on one hand, yet could not be particular or static on the other.<\/p>\n<cite>E. A. Carmean, Jr.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Mondrian was a serious man, both aesthetically and personally; his manner of dress was as formal and tidy as his paintings would suggest. But he harbored a love of modern jazz music and dancing. In jazz, he found a kindred musical spirit with his painting,&nbsp;especially in &#8220;the&nbsp;music&#8217;s concentration on complex rhythms and contrapuntal structure&nbsp;rather than the tune.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>There is a clear analogy to the vital, dynamic energy of boogie-woogie jazz in Mondrian&#8217;s New York paintings. His last, unfinished masterpiece, <strong>Victory Boogie-Woogie<\/strong>, reflects as much, not only in the explicit reference in the title but in the emphasis on visual counterpoint. If the black lines of the earlier work are the beat and the colored planes counterpoint, this final painting is pure syncopation. Most commentators agree that the multiple rhythms and overlaid grids of New York are reflected in the work.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" data-attachment-id=\"1732\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/williamcromar.com\/newmediawiki\/this-is-not-a-non-objective-object\/piet_mondriaan_victory_boogie_woogie\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/williamcromar.com\/newmediawiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Piet_Mondriaan_Victory_Boogie_Woogie.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"600,600\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Piet_Mondriaan_Victory_Boogie_Woogie\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/williamcromar.com\/newmediawiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Piet_Mondriaan_Victory_Boogie_Woogie.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/williamcromar.com\/newmediawiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Piet_Mondriaan_Victory_Boogie_Woogie.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1732\" style=\"width:400px;height:undefinedpx\" srcset=\"https:\/\/williamcromar.com\/newmediawiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Piet_Mondriaan_Victory_Boogie_Woogie.jpg 600w, https:\/\/williamcromar.com\/newmediawiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Piet_Mondriaan_Victory_Boogie_Woogie-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/williamcromar.com\/newmediawiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Piet_Mondriaan_Victory_Boogie_Woogie-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/williamcromar.com\/newmediawiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Piet_Mondriaan_Victory_Boogie_Woogie-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Victory Boogie-Woogie, unfinished 1942-44<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%80%A6_that_implies_time_and_motion\"><\/span>&#8230; that implies <em>time and motion<\/em><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>This relationship to music, dance, and urban energy provides an open door to the interpretation of Mondrian&#8217;s reality in expressions through time and motion, and animators have tried their hand at synthesizing the implications of space and dynamic tension present in these paintings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Brandon McFarland&#8217;s <strong>Mondrianimation<\/strong>, we see a two-dimensional interpretation that has the same spirit and scope that you&#8217;ll attempt to create in three dimensions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border:1;\" width=\"400\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/hMpzoE2V9P0?rel=0&#038;version=3&#038;controls=0&#038;modestbranding=1&#038;showinfo=0&#038;autohide=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3D modeling 2 | essentials nonObjective This is not a non-objective object &#8230; When painters like Johannes Itten, Paul Klee, and Wassily Kandinsky\u00a0were inventing the Bauhaus Basic Course, they were strongly influenced by developments in the Russian Constructivist\u00a0and Dutch De Stijl movements.\u00a0Walter Gropius, head of the Bauhaus, recruited some of the principal artists from these&#8230; <a href=\"https:\/\/williamcromar.com\/newmediawiki\/this-is-not-a-non-objective-object\/\">read more &raquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1709","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-3d-modeling","category-references"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
