Piet Mondrian Color Quotations

Colored planes, by their position and size as well as by their value, express only relationships, not forms.

The colored planes, as much by position and dimension as by the greater value given to color, plastically express only relationships and not forms.

The more basic the color, the more inward, the more pure.

The relation of color and the relation of proportion are both based on the relation of position.

Every true artist has been inspired more by the beauty of lines and color and the relationships between them than by the concrete subject of the picture.
