Mondrian, co-founder of the De Stijl movement in the Netherlands, called for a strict reduction of visual language to orthogonal composition and primary colors, which met with great approval in Bauhaus circles. His rigorous geometric compositions of verticals and horizontals and strident palette of essential colors were important to numerous Bauhaus masters. Mondrian\u2019s influence appeared in Bauhaus architecture, product design, typography, graphic design, painting and beyond. It is therefore not surprising that Mondrian\u2019s essays on art theory, most of them written for the De Stijl journal, were translated into German and published as fifth volume of the Bauhausbu\u0308cher series. Harry Holtzman\u2019s renowned translations of Mondrian\u2019s selected essays appear in New Design as a complete compilation for the first time. The publication is true to the content and design of the German first edition of 1925 and includes a brief scholarly commentary.<br><br>Available in the <a href=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bauhaus<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\">-Shop<\/a> or directly from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lars-mueller-publishers.com\/new-design-neoplasticism-nieuwe-beelding\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.lars-mueller-publishers.com\/new-design-neoplasticism-nieuwe-beelding\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">publishers<\/a>.<br><br>Please ask our colleagues in the <a href=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bauhaus<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\">-Shop<\/a> for prices and availability.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":2049,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-2835","publication","type-publication","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"seo_titel":"","keywords":"","noindex":false,"redirect":"","short_url":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication\/2835","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/publication"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication\/2835\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24660,"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication\/2835\/revisions\/24660"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2049"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2835"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
