His painting style reflected many of the artistic movements of the early 20th century, including Expressionism, Constructivism, and Cubo-Futurism. Like many artists of his time, he was drawn to Paris and Berlin, and by 1910 he had visited both cities twice. In 1923, Kadar showed his paintings in Berlin at the invitation of Herwath Walden. Walden was a major figure in the German avant-garde and was the publisher of the magazine Der Sturm, which presented the works of Franz Marc, Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, Marc Chagall, and Oskar Kokoschka. At the group show at Walden's gallery with other artists from Der Sturm, Kadar met Katherine Dreier, whose Societe Anonyme had been instrumental in bringing the work of the European avant-garde to New York. With her help, two major exhibitions of his work were planned for the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the second of which Kadar visited from Europe in September 1928.
