César Domela (15 January 1900 – 30 December 1992) was a Dutch sculptor, painter, photographer, and typographer, and a key member of the De Stijl movement.
His father, Ferdinand Domela Nieuwenhuis, was a former Lutheran pastor and influential anarcho-socialist member of the Dutch parliament.
Lacking a formal, artistic background, Domela's early art consisted of painted landscapes and still life where figures were reduced to geometric forms.
In 1925, he became the youngest member of De Stijl, working closely with the famed Theo van Doesburg and Piet Mondrian.
[citation needed] After Domela died, his vast archive of personal belongings and works was willed to the Netherlands Institute for Art History.
