Description

Theo "Construction I" of Theo Van Doesburg, created in 1925, is a sublime example that encapsulates the principles of neoplasticism, an artistic movement that in its essence seeks to reduce painting to its most basic elements: line, shape and color . Van Doesburg, co -founder of this movement together with Piet Mondrian, developed an approach that prioritized visual harmony through abstract and geometric language. In "Construction I", there is a precise interaction between the rectangular shapes and the chosen colors, which, although limited, is deeply effective.

The composition is characterized by a meticulous use of straight lines and plans. Each rectangle and each line seem arranged in a methodical order, suggesting an almost architectural structure. This is one of Van Doesburg's main innovations, who considered that painting should not be a mere representation of the physical world, but a construction in itself, a space where the viewer could experience a new reality. The balance that achieves between the shape and space is amazing; There is no clear visual hierarchy, which allows each element to compete simultaneously for the observer's attention.

The color plays a central role in "Construction I", predominating a bold use of primary tones such as blue, red and yellow, as well as a blunt black that frames and defines shapes. This color choice, typically associated with neoplasticism, tries to cause an emotional and sensory response, inviting the viewer to experience the work not only through the view, but from a deeper cognitive response. In addition, the arrangement of colors in the work seems to evoke a sense of movement, suggesting a dynamism that contrasts with the rigidity of geometry.

Van Doesburg's influence is remarkable not only in painting, but also in architecture and industrial design, consolidating its role as a pioneer of modernism. His collaboration with other artists of his time, including the aforementioned Mondrian and the architect Gerrit Rietveld, strengthened this interconnection between the different art disciplines. "Construction I" can be considered a dialogue with these contemporary currents, but also a work that stands out for its uniqueness and its exploration of space as a form of expression.

In a broader context, this work is inscribed within a series of constructions that are configuring a legacy of abstraction that will continue to resonate in later art. The search for a visual "purity", where the unpublished elements refer to an idea of ​​universality, will be perpetuated in movements that will continue to explore the abstract in the following decades.

Thus, "Construction I" is not only a key piece in the corpus of Van Doesburg's work, but also stands as a declaration of intentions of neoplasticism, a call to observation and reflection on space, form and shape and The color This work, through its structural simplicity and emotional complexity, remains a vibrant testimony of the power of the art of transcending the mundane, challenging each observer to reconfigure their own perception of the world.
