Mondriaan. Even more compelling / interesting when I saw it in the NYC MoMa.

Dude! Hop on the train, and go to the Stedelijk Museum! They have a bunch of Piet's paintings there that span his career. It's really enlightening to see the evolution of his work from bad ripoffs of impressionism to the brilliance that it things like the above.

Seconded on the Stedelijk.

Mondrian is my favorite artist! I've been trying to find his essays for a little while now, but every copy I come across is ridiculous expensive.

I live in the Netherlands, maybe I can help you with that? E.g. anything off this page.

Wow! Are all of those in Dutch? I've been wanting to learn Dutch for some time.

Those are in Dutch, yeah. I also found some English and German books.

You're the best! I'm gonna look up on these when I get a chance.
