Show Notes
In this podcast, produced by the National Gallery of Ireland in association with our Mondrian exhibition, architect Emmett Scanlon explores the productive relationship between Mondrian and the studios he occupied and used when working. He also looks at how architecture has been influenced by his work and the work of his colleagues in the de Stijl movement, in conversation with Michael White, Mondrian scholar and academic.
Emmett Scanlon is an architect. His work is concerned with the relationship between people and buildings and the role and purpose and impact of architecture on our everyday lives. He is the host and producer of the popular podcast on architecture and design, What Do Buildings Do All Day? He is Assistant Professor of Architecture at UCD and Program Director of the March program.
This podcast was recorded in January 2021 as part of the National Gallery of Ireland's programme of events for the exhibition 'Mondrian'.

Piet Mondrian was enthralled by modernity and, across the span of his life, encountered it in some of the great cities of the world: Amsterdam, Paris, London and New York. The musical cultures of jazz and dance held particular resonance for him and so, as part of the National Gallery of Ireland's celebration of Mondrian’s work, we invited Emilie Conway, a contemporary jazz artist, to engage with this important aspect of his life and career.
