"Cercle et Carré" was an art movement founded in 1930 by artists Michel Seuphor and Augustin Lesage. It aimed to explore the relationship between geometric forms, particularly circles and squares, and their emotional and spiritual significance. The group sought to promote abstract art and foster connections between artists across Europe. The movement was associated with the broader Abstraction movement and included notable members like Victor Vasarely and Jean Arp. "Cercle et Carré" organized exhibitions and published a journal to share ideas, emphasizing the importance of geometry in art and its potential to convey universal truths.
