Unframed 1978 "The Golfer" by Victor Vasarely (1906-1997), original color serigraph with a silvered border, under shrinkwrap, signed in pencil by the artist in the lower right corner and numbered 59 of 200. Blue and green grid background subtly warped by figure of golfer in checkered reds, lilacs and pinks, raised to swing. Foam board is 20" W x 24" H, with the 14.5" W x 18" H print in corner protectors. 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.
