Unframed 1978 "Vilag" by Victor Vasarely (1906-1997) original color serigraph under acetate, signed in pencil by the artist in the lower right corner and numbered 63 of 275. Published by Atelier Arcay, Paris. Subtly layered blues contrast richly saturated green and orange in a study on volume, color, shape and movement. Upper right of corner-protected paper slightly rippled (shown). Measures: 23.5" square color block surrounded by cream print on a 30" W x 32.5" off-white paper, against a 3' x 3'2" foam board. Hungarian-French artist Victor Vasarely led the Optical Art movement with a 1937 work titled "Zebra." Op Art exploded in the 1960s, and he continued to use optical illusions and innovative techniques to confound the human eye with kinetic images, geometric forms, and new modes of expression from art to fashion to even industrial design until his death.
