In 1930 or 1931, a group of artists gathered outside Paris in the Meudon studio of Theo van Doesburg to put forth a proposal for an international union of abstract artists. On February 15, 1931, Abstraction-Creation, Art Non-Figuratif was founded, and between 1932 and 1936 published five issues of a periodical by the same name. Although van Doesburg died in Switzerland soon after, artists sympathetic to his ideas of geometric abstraction (including former members of Art Concret and Cercle et Carre) made up the core of the new organization, along with others less concerned with the geometric aspects of abstraction.
