Unknown Title (Fantasy in RED)

Herman Hana, 1915 - 1925

Herman Hana wrote about modern art from 1910 on. He was one of the first to understand the intentions of his friend Piet Mondrian (1872-1944). As an artist, Hana himself also turned away from the depiction of existing things. He developed a machine for making abstract compositions and experimented with ‘crystallisations’ in which reactions of various substances determined the final image, out of the artist’s control.
