Lot 0096: ATTR TO VICTOR VASARELY OP ART MIXED MEDIA PAINTING

41 reviews

Attributed to Victor Vasarely, Hungarian, French, 1906 to 1997, mixed media painting on board depicting an Op Art composition, 1953. Signed and dated, lower right. Victor Vasarely was a Hungarian French artist, who is widely accepted as a grandfather and leader of the Op art movement. His work titled Zebra, created in 1937, is considered by some to be one of the earliest examples of Op art. Victor Vasarely is considered one of the most prominent developers of Op Art. He created a distinct aesthetic current around optical and perceptual problems. From his days as a graphic commercial designer in Paris in the 1930s and 1940s, until his last decades promoting a new visual language for art and architectural design, Vasarely evolved as a unique artist whose virtuosity and technical precision was accompanied by a scientific consciousness about geometry and perception. The artist is internationally known for his reticular sculptures and paintings from the 1960s onwards, which play with spectators positions to provoke illusory effects of depth and movement. These works directly relate to a modern concern for the relationships between reality and perception. One of a kind artwork.
