1. Victor Vasarely The Father of Op Art

2. Let’s Talk… How was this image made? What colors are used? What do you see?

3. A little about why it started… In 1947, Vasarely discovered his place in abstract art. Influenced by his experiences at Breton Beach of Belle Isle, he concluded that "internal geometry" could be seen below the surface of the entire world.

4. This is titled “Vega.” Do you see it coming in or out? What colors are in this work? How did he achieve this illusion?

5. What the critics think… "the structure immediately became more dynamic, but also highly unstable, visually speaking. What we actually have is a montage of perceptual hypotheses. Each element functions through its own ambiguity; consequently, the kinetics here reach a very high level of complexity.

6. In ENGLISH please!! One could say that I created the optical illusion of perpetual motion." What does that all mean?

7. How much is it worth? Well, right now this original is starting an auction on e-bay for $14,500. Remember this is about $10 worth of materials, the rest is in the genius!

8. Observe the master at work…

9. A few more just to tickle your brainwaves!
