O obrazu

Black lines cross a white field beside a yellow rectangle in Burgoyne Diller's Second Theme, painted in 1934 and kept in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, Minneapolis. Diller regarded abstraction as a place of order and balance. In the 1930s he became the first American to adopt the international art and design style Neo-Plasticism, Piet Mondrian's approach based on grids and black, white and primary colours. He often planned paintings through collage, arranging paper strips, squares and rectangles before transferring a composition into paint.

Slovy muzea

A stark white canvas punctuated by intersecting black lines and a yellow rectangle: for Diller, abstraction was “the ideal realm of harmony, stability, and order.” In the 1930s, he was the first American artist to embrace the conventions of the international art and design style called Neo-Plasticism founded by Dutch artist Piet Mondrian: grid-like compositions and a palette limited to black, white, and the primary colors. Many of his paintings were first conceived as collages—he would plan the composition by arranging paper cutouts of lines, squares, and rectangles.
