'De Stijl' in Dutch is pronounced almost the same as The Style in English. So it's not The Sschhhtyle ;)

Yes, please lose the German pronunciation when speaking Dutch. You wouldn't speak Spanish with a French accent, would you? Even the French don't do that.

It is not only cringing, it says something about the approach towards research. Uninformed attempts to pronunciation betray academic laziness. It is ironic that this man mentions the concept of ’essential elements of representation’ in the same sentence in which he fails to apply the essential elements of representation, once again.

"By, sort of weeping (or wheeping?) to the end of a line and dispensing of everything that is not essentials you find this ultimate form of representation that is ultimate abstraction" What weeping? Which one of the lines? Is it all lines? What are essentials and for what? What representation, what is being represented here? How an abstraction can be half or ultimate?

Weeping as in erasing elements that are not essential so as to define a piece that is not too heterogeneous. Here, the essential elements are the primary colours red, blue and yellow only, and horizontal and vertical lines intersecting at right angles. A style of simplicity that defines modern movement is being represented here. De stijl was just an idea in art and design, a complete abstraction that was brought to materialistic form through architecture and design.

Cubism was not abstract and Picasso was adamant about never jettisoning representation. Futurism, while embracing non-figurative vocabularies, was not founded as an abstract art movement (and was more political in nature). These distinctions are very important when teaching the history of abstraction. Sotheby's needs to do better job at vetting the content.
