Broadway Boogie-Woogie

Broadway Boogie-Woogie

"Broadway Boogie-Woogie" is a painting by Piet Mondrian completed in 1943, shortly after he moved to New York in 1940.

Art critics consider "Broadway Boogie-Woogie" to be Mondrian's masterpiece, and a culmination of his aesthetic. Compared to his earlier work, the canvas is divided into a much larger number of squares. Although he spent most of his career creating abstract work, this painting is inspired by clear real-world examples: the city grid of Manhattan, and the boogie woogie music to which Mondrian loved to dance.
