Piet Mondrian's masterpiece 'Broadway Boogie-Woogie' was created in 1942 when he moved to the United States due to the war, drawing inspiration from his experience, the urban elements of New York, and jazz music.
'NYC Boogie-Woogie' reinterprets this work from the perspective of 2023 New York, which has become the center of NFT, by adding movement and deconstruction to the formal grid and lines of the original work, thus enhancing pluralism and diversity. It evokes infinite movement and change through a combination of the past and present.
The De Stijl movement is an art movement that emphasizes the decomposition and recombination of aesthetic expression to create new forms. Pixel art is recognized as one of the important forms of digital art. This work incorporates the relationship between pixels, the smallest unit in the digital realm, and the De Stijl movement that permeates postmodernism.
This work connects the Broadway of the past, where jazz flowed, and the current New York, where technology has become a festival, demonstrating a harmonious integration of history and the present in the realm of creative imagination towards the future.
