Shimmer 1972

"Shimmer", a 1972 artwork by Polish artist Julian Stanczak (1928-2017), is a vibrant example of Op Art. The composition, made up of parallel and diagonal lines in orange, pink, and green, creates an illusion of movement and depth. This optical effect, a hallmark of Op Art, is achieved by manipulating the viewer's perception of color and form through geometric patterns. Stanczak's work often explored the interplay of light and color, captivating viewers with its visually stimulating and dynamic qualities.
