Exhibition on the occasion of the publication of Erik de Graaf's graphic novel of the same name. The graphic novelist honours the famous painter with a colourful story about the last eventful years of his life in Paris, London and New York. On view now until 13 April 2025. Almost everyone knows Piet Mondrian (1872-1944) as the revolutionary painter of red, white, blue and yellow planes divided between tight black lines. Less well known is that the artist saw it as his task to strive for balance and harmony in his compositions, as a blueprint for a better world. The exhibition Mondrian, a better world, on show from 19 October at the Mondrian House, explores Mondrian's philosophical and idealistic side. The occasion for this exhibition is the publication of Erik de Graaf's graphic novel of the same name. In the fist-sized publication, the graphic novelist depicts how Mondrian spent the last 11 years of his life moving from Paris, to London and eventually to New York, fleeing the rising tide of Nazism in Europe. Against the backdrop of World War II, Mondrian continued to search until his death for a way to bring light to the increasing darkness in the world.
