Victor Vasarely (1906-1997) Optical sculpture, circa 1970

Numbered 21/250 on the bottom left and signed Vasarely in the centre, on the back plate, this two-tone sculpture (black and transparent) is resolutely modern and easily finds its place in a contemporary interior or will delight collectors.

Optical art or kinetic art, Victor Vasarely, of French-Hungarian origin, is the undisputed master of geometric abstract art.

With this two-dimensional sculpture of two silkscreened plexiglass sheets, Vasarely creates an illusion of depth, revealing a black circle centred on multiple black squares, a true representation of the optical art movement he created.
