Supernovae – Neg 1973

Victor Vasarely's "Supernovae – Neg" from 1973 is a prime example of his signature style of Op Art. The black and white grid pattern creates a dynamic optical illusion, playing with light and shadow to make the image appear to move and pulsate. This use of geometric shapes to evoke a sense of motion is central to Vasarely's artistic exploration of perception. The work is a testament to his interest in the relationship between art and science, exploring the way our eyes interpret visual information. "Supernovae – Neg" exemplifies the Op Art movement's fascination with the interplay between form, colour, and perception.
