On the painting 'Broadway Boogie Woogie' of Piet Mondrian:
For the first time a subject is present, not by virtue of its absence, but actually present, though its appearance is torn away, and only the structure bared. The Modern City!

Mondrian has left his white paradise, and entered the world.Mark Rothko
