Apparently Modrian (Modriaan) created the Modrian squares puzzle, whereby you have to cover a canvas 64 (cm) square with non-overlapping, uniquely shaped rectangles, subtracting the areas of the largest rectangles from the smallest rectangles to get as low a 'score' as possible. Mathematicians have discovered there is no formula for this - it is pure intuition or trial by error, thereby making it more of an art riddle than a science one. Not just squares after all.

gorgeous!

The great thing about real art is that nothing can be said about it.

Every time I see a Mondrian original. I think of the Partridge family.

I love mondrian's idea. good♥

I really like Mondrian's work, but I am "madly" in love with this beautiful lady! Now "that" is real art...

Wonderful!

His greatest leap forward did not come in Paris but in The Netherlands when he moved back to The Hague from Paris during WW1 and became associated with Dutch avant garde movement De Stijl. That is where he had his real breakthrough and created his definative style. In The Netherlands. Not Paris.

Excellent video thanks

Excelente!

What is the lovely music?? Does anyone know? Sounds like something right out of final fantasy

Amazing

Yoooooo I remember doing this art back in Middle School art class. Lmao I guess we got the inspiration from this guy.

Nice work

I feel free. Mentally organized. Yet, i feel no emotional attachment. It just feels right.

Imagine if he had lived a decade or two longer, and what direction his art could have taken.

Mondriaan pioneered abstract art? I love and am inspired by his work. But what about Hilma Af Klint, Kazimir Malevich, and Wassily Kandinsky? Piet was one of the greats but was not the first one to show up to the party.

wow :)

In a chaotic, fragmented, often vindictive world, surely it makes sense that an artist might want to create art that is simple and universal and almost innocent, no? Some of you need to get over the fact there are a bunch of us who really like this guy's art even though "you could have painted it in school"! That's the point!

I learned this in school When I was 7

Ik zit op de mondriaan😎😎😎

Amazing. Contrary to the common belief these are just squares, this art touches the soul. Interpretation is self evident.

Really nice!

Looks great

British people do not understand that Mondrian expressed in his paintings the synthetic philosophy of the great English philosopher Herbert Spencer.

I don't get it.

Yeet

kitchen tiles

Dynamic equilibrium ...radiate tension ad energy... ...lack of conformity... ...black bands running across the canvas in sequence which with some of the colors loose from their cages work together in time and out of time always like a jazz syncopated beat these final paintings mark the end of an extraordinary career of a man of a????.modernity in a hope for a better future. I can not find the meaning of those words. No matter how hard I try, I can not find any meaning or sense in those paintings. Absolut absurd.

I wish I could become rich and famous by drawing a few lines and squares

She is beautiful

😦😡😠😤😒😔👇

I can do that. I'm lost. Anyone can paint these squares

The emperor has no clothes.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Extravagant just like Lift Yourself by Kyne West... Proof you can literally do nothing and your "fan-boys" will support you.

it's just squares

Rosie, you're hot! Where all did he travel? Thank you 😏

looks like what happens when a child is left playing on MS Paint

I feel pity for her boyfriend

it's just squares
