ION-J 1967 - 1971

Victor Vasarely's "ION-J" (1967-1971) is a prime example of Op Art, a movement that emerged in the mid-20th century. This kinetic work uses a repeating pattern of yellow, blue, and grey circles arranged in a honeycomb pattern, creating the illusion of movement and depth. The abstract composition plays with the viewer's perception, making the circles appear to vibrate and shift, giving the artwork a hypnotic quality. Vasarely, a pioneer of Op Art, explored the relationship between color, form, and perception, creating works that challenged traditional notions of art.
