Pieter Cornelis (Piet) Mondriaan, after
1912 Mondrian, (pronounced: Dutch , later Pete Mon-dree-on, ) (b.
Amersfoort,
Netherlands,
March 7 ,
1872 — d.
New York City,
February 1,
1944) was a Dutch painter.He was an important contributor to the
De Stijl art movement and group, which was founded by
Theo van Doesburg. Despite being well-known, often-parodied and even trivialized, Mondrian's paintings exhibit a complexity that belies their apparent simplicity. He is best known for his
non-representational paintings that he called "compositions", consisting of rectangular forms of red, yellow, blue, white or black, separated by black rectilinear lines. They are the result of a stylistic evolution that occurred over the course of nearly 30 years and continued beyond that point to the end of his life.
