Herbert Henkels provides an overview of Mondrian's transition from figuration to non-figurative art and recreates the cultural and intellectual background against which Mondrian's career and sense of mission as an artist unfolded. Copiously illustrated with archive photographs of Mondrian, his family, friends and studios, with pages from his sketchbooks and numerous reproductions of his works, the book also includes Mondrian's important essay Plastic Art and pure Art, published in the English Constructivist group's book Circle in 1937. The 116 colour plates which form the heart of the volume are accompanied by selected quotations from Mondrian's essay Dialogue and Trialogue of Neo-Plasticism (published in De Stijl, 1918-1920). Three interviews with the artist, an illustrated chronology with excerpts from Mondrian's letters, and a select bibliography complete this handsome volume.
