Colour Blocking/1950s

Mondrian Style Project

Here is my take on Mondrian’s famous colour blocking. Instead of black and white with primary colours, I did green and white with colours from the red and pink family to make everything pop.

1950s Movie Star

When you think of the 1950s and black and white film, you MUST always travel in time back to Humphrey Bogart and the American Film SUPERSTAR. He is a cultural icon, and is one of the most well known actors of all the film industry.

Colours of the 1950s

Ranging from pale pinks, to moody reds; none the matter they all had one thing in common. Lead!

1950s Fashion

It’s all about Dior’s New Look!!! Bouffant dresses and white gloves.

1950s Car

Everyone is quite aware of the Studebaker’s role in the history of the 1950s, it’s bubbly personality is all to familiar.

Colour Blocking!

Here’s an example of Piet Mondrian’s famous colour blocking work, yes that’s the name of the guy who you’ve seen continuously throughout you’re life but never knew the master mind behind it. This art form was very popular during the fifties, and continues to be one of the major art styles we use today in display.
