b.) I believe that Piet Mondrian would best fit my definition of formalism after viewing his works. Even though his medium is 2-D, Mondrian creates purely based on form more so than Kandinsky or Malevich.
c.) I believe that Mondrian's work is very formalistic, focusing on the contour rather than subject matter or conceptual thought. All his work combined even feels like the audience is viewing one form that he then shows differently in scale, from far off, revealing mor or zoomed very close to the object, cropping out that form yet, constantly creating new forms through this artistic and well designed cropping. His work has depth and spreads easily into other aspect of life and art, yet it's simplistic and virtious methods capture purely the form for it's necessary and natural role of formalism.
d.) I chose Michael Klauke, i enjoy his stress and importance he puts on typography. It is something i am currently experimenting with adding to the imagery a form of text taht somehow relates to the image, either directly or absrtactly and personally.
