Biography:
Dutch painter, designer, and architect, Theo van Doesburg adopted an early style that was highly influenced by Impressionism, Expressionism, and Cubism. In 1915, he met Mondrian and switched his approach to that of total abstraction. He co-founded the De Stijl movement in 1917 and devoted his career to spreading the group’s ideas. During the 1920’s he traveled across Europe promoting his artistic beliefs, settling only for a short time from 1922 to 1924 to teach at the Bauhaus. In the same decade, he switched from his horizontal and vertical line compositions and began incorporating diagonals in his series, Counter-Compositions. Doesburg titled this new style, Elementarism. He moved to Paris in 1929, set up a studio in the suburbs and published a manifesto of Concrete art a year later. In his final year, he held a meeting in his studio that resulted in the founding of the Abstraction-Creation association.
