XIKO-B 1972

"XIKO-B" (1972) is a vibrant optical illusion by Hungarian-born artist Victor Vasarely (1908-1997), a pioneer of Op Art. The artwork is composed of overlapping geometric shapes, primarily cubes and squares, in bold, contrasting colors like red, green, blue, and purple. Vasarely's work often explores the perception of depth and space, creating a dynamic and playful visual experience. The seemingly three-dimensional effect of the "XIKO-B" work is achieved through careful manipulation of color and form. This piece showcases Vasarely's masterful use of geometric shapes and colors to create an intricate optical illusion, inviting viewers to engage with the interplay of form and perception.
