Op art, or optical art, is a genre of art that emerged in the 60s of the 20th century to create eye-catching visuals through geometric patterns, colors, and shapes. This kind of art not only challenges the perception of the viewer, but also allows us to feel the charm of movement, the depth of space and the illusion of three-dimensionality when appreciating.
Today, let's follow the footsteps of these 10 representative Op art masters and walk into this wonderful world of "dizziness".
Victor Vasarelli is known as the father of Op Art. His work is characterized by bold, bright colors and repetitive geometric patterns that create an illusion of movement and depth for the viewer. Among them, the "Zebra" work is characterized by its black and white zigzag lines, as if to bring us into a three-dimensional world.
Riley's works such as "Movement in Squares" and "Blaze 1" show us the charm of movement. In particular, "Blaze 1", in which the red, pink, and black diagonals seem to vibrate and pulsate constantly, making it dizzying.
Known for his large-scale installations and sculptures, Soto's work skillfully uses light and movement to create optical illusions. Among them, the work "Penetrable Object" is even more immersive, allowing the viewer to feel an unprecedented sense of immersion and interaction through a large-scale installation composed of suspended wires or other materials.
Anuszkiewicz's work is characterized by contrasting colors and geometric shapes, presenting us with an illusion of depth and movement. The bright, contrasting circular patterns in his "Temple of the Sun" work seem to transport us into a three-dimensional temple.
Omar Leo's work is characterised by precise, intricate designs, and he skillfully applies the mathematical principle of proportions to create his artistic world. His works such as "Tension Diagram" feature geometric shapes arranged in repeating patterns, which make people feel a unique visual experience when they are **.
The French artist Jean-Pierre Ibarra was one of the pioneers of Op Art and the son of the famous artist Victor Vasarelli. His work boldly uses contrasting colors and features complex geometric shapes. What's more, Ibarra's penchant for the use of computer technology in art has imbued his work with digital and mechanical charm.
Italian artist Marina Apollonio is known for her pioneering work in the field of kinetics and op art. Her work is simple yet deep, characterized by geometric shapes and bright contrasting colors. Apollonio is particularly adept at using light and movement, and her works often incorporate electric elements to give the viewer the illusion of movement and deformation.
American artist Edna Andrade is known for her intricate geometric patterns and bright, contrasting op art paintings. Her work draws inspiration from Abstract Expressionism, but in the 1960s she began experimenting with op art, creating the illusion of depth and movement.
German artist Ludwig Wyerding's op art paintings are full of bold contrasting colors and intricate geometric patterns. His work is characterized by a symmetrical arrangement of shapes and lines, giving the viewer the illusion of movement and depth. In addition, he is unique in his use of color, with bright tones that seem to vibrate and pulsate.
German artist Gerhard von Gravenitz has left a deep mark on the fields of op art, kinetic art and concrete art. His work features geometric shapes and patterns, creating the illusion of movement and deformation through intricate arrangements. In addition, he pays special attention to the use of light and color, incorporating digital and mechanical elements into his work.
These five artists have all made great contributions to the development of Op Art, and their works not only challenge our perceptions, but also bring us a new visual feast. Next time you stand in front of these works, you might as well pay more attention, and maybe you will find more "dizziness"!
