ok i never got mondrian
even my hardest most prententious art history boner could not sustain a love for mondrian
but holy shit i finally get it
ladies and gentleman ; the precursor to pixel art
the one and only 1920's pixel artist

Have you ever studies the rietveld schroederhuis? I don't think I 'got' de stijl before that.
>>2778698
it's really not the precursor to pixel art, he doesn't even use a regular grid most of the time. it's just geometric. and pixel art has nothing to do with "getting" mondrian
pic related is a direct analog to pixel art that predates both the computer and mondrian (c.1785)

died wood inlays on a music cabinet
and apparently I got the date wrong, it's 1875.
>>2778698
His older works, notably landscape is much better.
The geometric works are bullshit attempts at "capturing" music.
Your comparison to pixel art is laughable.
>>2778698
its just decoration mang

>the precursor to pixel art
what did he mean by this

>what did he mean by this?
He meant "omg I just realized there are squares in Mondrian AND in Pixel art, 'tis le ancient Minecraft XD"
>>2778698
Mondrian deconstructed composition by showing the underling grids that dictated them. It was supposed to be a secret and this dude out of the goodness of his heart exposed it.
