Art on the contrary sought this harmony in practice [of art itself]. More and more in its creations it has given inwardness to that what surrounds us in nature, until, in Neo-Plasticism, nature is no longer dominant. This achievement of balance may prepare the way for the fulfillment of man and signal the end of (what we call) art.

abstract art is not the creation of another reality but the true vision of reality.

Why should art continue to follow nature when every other field has left nature behind?

Vertical and horizontal lines are the expression of two opposing forces; they exist everywhere and dominate everything; their reciprocal action constitutes 'life'. I recognized that the equilibrium of any particular aspect of nature rests on the equivalence of its opposites.

Everything is expressed through RELATIONSHIPS.

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

It is a task of art to express clear vision of reality.
