Sandu Darie was born in Romania in 1908 of Jewish parents Darie trained initially as a lawyer in Bucharest. He migrated to Paris in the 1930s and became part of the first wave of literary and artistic members of the Romanian avant garde diaspora. Once in Cuba he established himself as an artist with strong emphasis on geometric abstraction. He represented Cuba at the 1953 II Sao Paulo Bienal and was part of the Concrete Cuban manifesto in the 1958 exhibit in Havana of the group of 10.
