Victor Vasarely

Victor Vasarely was a Hungarian-French artist, widely regarded as the father of Op Art, a movement that utilizes optical illusions. Born in 1906, he experimented with geometric shapes and vibrant colors to create artworks that appear to move or change when viewed from different angles. His distinctive style combines precise lines and patterns, often engaging the viewer's perception. Vasarely believed art should be accessible and engage the public, leading him to create works for both galleries and urban spaces. His influential legacy continues to inspire contemporary artists and remains vital in discussions about visual perception and modern art.
