De Stijl [The Style] was a Dutch artistic movement founded in 1917 by the Dutch painter, designer, writer, and critic Theo van Doesburg. The group's principal members were the painters Piet Mondrian, Vilmos Huszár, and Bart van der Leck, and the architects Gerrit Rietveld, Robert van 't Hoff, and J. J. P. Oud. The artistic philosophy that formed a basis for the group's work is known as neoplasticism—the new plastic art (or Nieuwe Beelding in Dutch).

Journal

De Stijl: Maandblad voor de moderne beeldende vakken [en kultuur] is the name of a journal that was edited and published by Theo van Doesburg and served to propagate the group's theories. Originally a monthly, later published irregularly, De Stijl appeared in 90 issues between October 1917 and January 1932 in Delft (1917-18), Leiden (1918-21) and Meudon (France); not published in November-December 1920, January-February 1923, and 1929-1931. Though the journal never sold more than 300 copies, it had a strong influence on art in the Netherlands and abroad.
