Description:
These captivating works by Victor Vasarely, titled Babel-3 and Untitled, exemplify his mastery of optical illusion. Known as the "Father of Op Art," Vasarely's exploration of color, geometry, and perception created dynamic pieces that seem to vibrate and shift as viewers interact with them. Babel-3, originally printed in 1972, is an offset print featuring a vibrant hexagonal structure, demonstrating Vasarely's dedication to intricate geometric patterns and bold color contrasts. The second work, a heliogravure titled Untitled, offers a striking illusion of depth through a grid of receding circles, a signature optical trick Vasarely often employed.
Vasarely's work is rooted in Bauhaus principles and was influenced by modernist figures like Kazimir Malevich and Josef Albers. His art was central to the Op Art movement, which he helped establish, pushing the boundaries of how we perceive two-dimensional artworks. These two pieces, which showcase his experiments with perception and movement, would be a mesmerizing addition to any collection. Vasarely's legacy continues to inspire new generations of artists and is celebrated globall
