The artwork titled “Composition XXV” was created by Theo van Doesburg in 1923 in Germany. This piece is executed in oil on canvas and belongs to the Neoplasticism art movement, categorized within the abstract genre.
“Composition XXV” showcases a minimalist geometric arrangement, emphasizing vertical and horizontal lines in a stark, monochromatic palette. The composition focuses on the balance and asymmetry of forms, utilizing a series of black bars of varying lengths and thicknesses strategically positioned against a light background. This interplay of shapes and lines embodies the principles of Neoplasticism, emphasizing simplicity, order, and an intrinsic structure devoid of representational elements. The overall aesthetic reflects a disciplined approach to abstraction, highlighting harmony through the reduction of visual elements to their essential forms.
