Title: Piet Mondrian New Design
Description: Although Piet Mondrian was not an active member of the Bauhaus, his name is often mentioned in connection with the art school. Starting with a philosophical foray in which he describes art as a figurative expression of human existence, Mondrian embeds his concept of a 'New Design' in the various forms of artistic expression. He looks into the question of whether there is a prevailing hierarchy between painting and architecture and dares to take a far-reaching look at the future of neoplasticism. Harry Holtzman's renowned translations of Mondrian's five essays on 'New Design' appear in this volume in a complete compilation for the first time. The publication is true to the content and design of the German first edition of 1925.
