Contrast, silence and structure · Painting with values
From the tonal portrait of Whistler to the abstraction of Malevich and Mondrian, black and white reveals structure, rhythm, matter and light with particular intensity.

Malevich radicalizes this logic with Black Square: the dark shape on a light background becomes an autonomous sign and a breaking point. Mondrian uses lines and surfaces in Composition in White and Black II to build balance without representation. Vilhelm Hammershøi shows another path: in Composition in White and Black II Mondrian uses lines and surfaces to build balance without representation. Mondrian uses lines and surfaces in Composition in White and Black II to build balance without representation.
