Couleur electrique lumière 2006

Horacio Garcia-Rossi created "Couleur electrique lumiere," a piece that pulses with vibrant color and geometric precision. Garcia-Rossi, an Argentinian artist, was deeply engaged in the kinetic art movement. This movement explored the relationship between art and technology, and how art could create dynamic sensory experiences for the viewer. His identity as a South American artist placed him in dialogue with European and North American art scenes, often infusing his work with a unique perspective. The concentric circles and bars, rendered in intense reds, oranges, and blues, create a visual vibration. The moiré patterns feel like light itself is being bent and refracted. Garcia-Rossi's exploration of light and color is a testament to his belief in art as a means of accessing deeper, more visceral sensations. The artwork challenges traditional notions of static art, inviting viewers to experience art as a dynamic, ever-changing phenomenon. In this way, it becomes a reflection of a rapidly changing, technologically advancing society.
