SUMMARY:Mondrian's Evolution Into Abstraction
DESCRIPTION:Mondrian is forever known in history for the artist who created the extremely recognisable elementary colour field paintings. He started creating these kinds of paintings around 1920. What many do not realise is that by then he had already 30 years of being a figurative artist under his belt. This lecture follows this evolution\, his self-discovery\, and his belief in a new world order. \nDates and Locations \nWednesday 9 September 2026 Geelong (VIC) \nMonday 21 September 2026 Fleurieu (SA) \nSaturday 26 September 2026 Perth (WA) \nClick on your preferred location above for more details and to book tickets.
