Welcome! Presenting mid 20th century modern impressionist New York cityscape, Cityscape painting flourished after World War II, already appearing in the repertory of abstract expressionist painters, for example in “City landscape” by Joan Mitchell (1955, Art Institute of Chicago) or in some audacious pictorial experiments by Willem de Kooning. On the way to abstraction we find the figure of Piet Mondrian, who, after emigrating to the United States, created his original visions of New York City, among them the famous “Broadway Boogie Woogie” (1942-43, New York, MOMA) , which the painter Robert Motherwell described with these words: “The Modern City!
