Mondria(a)n, en route to New York
Pim Zwier / NL, 2025 / 72 min.
Fascinating insight into the life and work of De Stijl pioneer Piet Mondriaan on the eve of his departure for New York. A voiceover quotes Mondriaan’s letters to his American friend Harry Holtzman while the camera explores the artist’s groundbreaking abstractions.
World War II was imminent, but Piet Mondriaan had doubts about leaving for America. In a game with planes, lines and rhythm, Mondriaan’s contemplations and the historic events move in and out of focus.
