Wietse Coppes and Leo Jansen

Mondriaan en fotografie. De kunstenaar in beeld offers a unique insight into the life of one of the 20th century’s greatest artists. All surviving photographs are brought together here for the first time, including many that have never been published before. There are snapshots showing the artist’s private life, taken during journeys or visits; photographs of his studios in Amsterdam, Paris and New York; pictures of vernissages, artists’ meetings and dinners; as well as formal portraits commissioned by the artist.

Featuring the work of illustrious photographers such as André Kertész, Cas Oorthuys, László Moholy-Nagy and Arnold Newman, Mondrian and Photography is an indispensable reference work for anyone who wants to immerse themselves in the world of this extraordinary modern artist.
