          Theo van Doesburg was the primary founder of the De Stijl (Dutch for The Style) art movement in the Netherlands. While there is no official date that marks the debut of the De Stijl movement, it can be traced to 1917 when Doesburg began publishing a magazine of the same name devoted to this style and theory of abstract art and architecture.

          Although Doesburg is often considered the founder of De Stijl, the movement was actually the collaboration of a number of artists of his day, including Piet Mondrian.
