Victory Boogie Woogie
Artist: Piet Mondrian
Piet Mondrian's final painting, left unfinished at his death in 1944, is a large diamond-shaped canvas that aims to capture the rhythm of New York and boogie-woogie music. This gallery visit traces what Mondrian painted, how he worked and reworked the surface, and what the painting's oppositions of chaos and order, light and dark, speed and slowness meant to him.
