Description: Dennis Bergkamp. Football’s quiet genius. No stepovers for the sake of it. No screaming celebrations. Just impossible first touches, impossible angles and the kind of composure that made the game slow down around him. Part artist, part assassin — Bergkamp played football like he already knew what was going to happen three seconds before everyone else. From that turn against Newcastle to casually humiliating defenders across Europe, he made brilliance look completely effortless. The non-flying Dutchman. The Ice Man. One of the greatest technicians the game has ever seen.
Description: This composition is a prime example Mondrian’s astonishingly limited visual language. It consists of just horizontal and vertical lines in black, with planes of white and the three primary colours, from which all other colours are derived by mixing. The structure, the order of the elements in a coherent whole and the pure colour were meant to suggest an ethical view of society. Each individual element and the configuration to which it contributes were intended to symbolise the relationship between the individual and the collective, or the universal.
