The Inspiration
The Monteverde Regatta “Broadway Boogie-Woogie” Limited Numbered Edition of only 942 pens
is a striking tribute to the bold geometry and vibrant palette that defined Piet Mondrian’s art. The
design captures the dynamic energy and rhythm of his masterpiece “Broadway Boogie Woogie”,
incorporating the clean lines and carefully segmented blocks of color that characterize his abstract
style. The pen features a mix of primary hues—red, yellow, and blue—set against a backdrop of
black, white, and gray, reflecting the essence of Mondrian's Neo-Plasticism. These colors are
carefully arranged in a balanced yet energetic pattern, echoing the lively streets of New York City
that inspired Mondrian’s work.
The interplay of color on the pen is not just an aesthetic choice but a reflection of Mondrian's
philosophy of asymmetrical balance. The vibrant hues contrast with the neutral tones, creating a
visual rhythm that mirrors the boogie-woogie music that so deeply influenced the artist. This
design element allows each pen to become a small piece of art, bringing the essence of Mondrian’s
abstract world into the hands of the writer.
The collection’s thoughtful construction includes a magnetic closure system, ensuring effortless
capping and posting for both the fountain and rollerball pens. This practical feature enhances the
pen’s streamlined form while adding an innovative touch. Additionally, the well-balanced weight of
each writing instrument ensures comfort during extended writing sessions, minimizing hand
fatigue and enhancing the overall writing experience.
Limited to just 942 numbered pieces, the Regatta “Broadway Boogie-Woogie” collection reflects
Mondrian’s philosophy of harmony and balance, both in its design and its exclusive nature. Each
pen is individually numbered, adding a personal touch to this tribute to Mondrian’s legacy, making
it not just a writing instrument, but a collectible piece of art.
