About the work

Vasarely was the father of “Op Art”—making images that we could easily create today with computers but that in the middle parts of the Twentieth Century required a magical combination of mathematical and creative genius to create. This work highlights Vasarely’s facility with color and with shapes and movement. It is an exemplar of op art, even the more so for its beautiful application of paints, which are right, smooth, and remarkably crisp.

This is an Artist’s Proof (as designated by the “EA”, “épreuve d’artiste,” written by the artist in pencil en recto lower left).

On paper 29.75″ x 21.25″.

This work is framed in ash, hand-painted in black with an 8-ply conservation-grade mat. It is glazed with Optium, a museum-grade plexiglass which eliminates nearly all glare and offers the maximum-available UV protection.
