De StijlDe StijlMondrian writes, "... this new plastic idea will ignore the particulars of appearance, that is to say, natural form and colour. On the contrary, it should find its expression in the abstraction of form and colour, that is to say, in the straight line and the clearly defined primary colour."
"only primary colours and non-colours, only squares and rectangles, only straight and horizontal or vertical line."
"It [De Stijl] was posited on the fundamental principle of the geometry of the straight line, the square, and the rectangle, combined with a strong asymmetricality; the predominant use of pure primary colors with black and white; and the relationship between positive and negative elements in an arrangement of non-objective forms and lines.”

DadaismDadaismthe origin of the name Dada is unclear, some believe it is a nonsensical word.
Some believe it was the artists’ frequent use of the words ‘da, da’, meaning ‘yes, yes’ in Romanian.
Another theory says that it came from a French-German dictionary and pointed out to ‘dada’, French word for ‘hobbyhorse’.
