After attending a private painting school, Divéky studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna under Alois Delug from 1905 to 1907 and at the Vienna School of Applied Arts from 1907 to 1910. Divéky worked successfully as a commercial artist in Vienna, Zurich, Brussels and Budapest. He lived in Switzerland from 1919 and taught at the Budapest School of Arts and Crafts from 1941. Divéky worked for the Wiener Werkstätte, as a designer for the Lobmeyr glass chandelier company, created bookplates, published in various magazines and worked as a book illustrator.
In 1937, his etching Gefilde der Seeligen was confiscated from the Schlossmuseum Weimar and destroyed as part of the Nazi "Degenerate Art" campaign.
