Composition

Bart van der Leck, c. 1919

In the short time that Bart van der Leck was involved with De Stijl (1917–18), he wrote about the relationship between painting and architecture. Painting could ‘break open’ a space through colour. This painting is probably the design for a composition with planes of colour on the wall of his studio. The white rectangles indicate a window and a door.
