Long overdue inclusion of French/Hungarian artist Victor Vasarely (1906-1997). Credited as the author of the Op-Art movement, Vasarely built his aesthetic from a range of influences, including Bauhaus design, Wassily Kandinsky, Constructivism, and his employment in graphic design. After experimenting with Abstract Expressionism and Surrealism, Vasarely went on to create the work he became best known for, called “Gordes.” Pictured here from that series: “HAT-VI” (1971), oil on board; “Rikka” (1988), screenprint on paper; and “Phönix” (1988), mixed media on cardboard.
