Optical art
From Artists Curated Registry
Jump to navigationJump to search
= a mid-1960s art movement characterized by abstract, geometric patterns—often in black and white—designed to create intense optical illusions. These works manipulate, warp, flash, or vibrate, tricking the viewer's eye into perceiving movement or hidden images; it focuses on scientific, objective perception.
Key artists:
- Victor Vasarely
- Bridget Riley.
