Abstract
: This brief essay will compare two artists Oskar Kokoschka and Piet Mondrian, both active at the beginning and middle of the 20th century. What they have in common is the domination of the internal, of consciousness affecting the external world. But how this works out in practice is another story.

The selections of these two modern artists reviewed here deal with two distinct features of abstract art. These two features can be summarized this way:

•What dominates in modern societies are abstract entities that are associated with the world of technology and the machine, what makes objects regular and repeatable rather than unique;
•The internal dominates over the external: objects are functions of consciousness in one respect or another and the distinctions will be covered below.

To put this differently, both artists conceive the artistic vision as both a function of the age of the machine, of scientific regularity, as well as the internalization of that vision.
