Broadway Boogie Woogie is a painting by Piet Mondrian completed in 1943, after he had moved to New York in 1940.

Although he spent most of his career creating abstract work, this painting is inspired by clear real-world examples: the city grid of Manhattan, and boogie-woogie, an African-American Blues music Mondrian loved.

[2] Martins later donated the painting to the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.

[1] When Piet Mondrian arrived in New York he became fond of the neat, rigid architecture.

Mondrian called it the “destruction of natural appearance; and construction through continuous opposition of pure means - dynamic rhythm.”[3] This article about a twentieth-century painting is a stub.
