The Polish avant-garde and the group De Stijl were not only connected by a similar time of activity, but also by a common goal consisting in a plan to create a new and to some extent autonomous artistic culture based on abstraction, which would become the basis for modernization of the environment. The relations between the Polish artistic milieu and the Dutch avant-garde date back to the 1st International Congress of Progressive Artists in Duesseldorf in May 1922. The most important, however, are those which found their expression later, in the mid-1920s, and combined the works of De Stijl and the pioneers of the Polish constructivist avant-garde in Poland, Władysław Strzemiński and Katarzyna Kobro. The article focuses on the analysis of the attitude of these two artists to the legacy of De Stijl and the impact the Dutch art had on their creative work, in particular on their concept of composition of space and functionalism and the importance of shaping artistic forms
