Michel Seuphor is an abstract painter born in 1901 in Antwerp, Belgium. He initially worked as a poet and published in various journals. From 1922 he befriended several artists including Robert and Sonia Delaunay, Piet Mondrian, and Fernand Léger. Seuphor is the originator of the Cercle et Carré group, which brought together artists who proclaimed themselves to be neoplasticists.

Solo or group exhibitions in which Michel Seuphor is shown partly explain his market value and the price of his works on the international art market. The recognition of Michel Seuphor by museum institutions attests to the quality and importance of his work.
