Dragon c. 1975

Victor Vasarely's "Dragon" from c. 1975 is a bold example of Op Art. It features a vibrant composition of red, green, and blue, creating a dynamic optical illusion. The overlapping curves and shapes suggest movement, drawing the viewer's eye across the canvas. Vasarely, a leading figure in the Op Art movement, sought to explore the interplay of color and form to create a stimulating visual experience. This piece, with its flat planes and sharp lines, perfectly embodies the tenets of Op Art, emphasizing the illusionary nature of perception.
