Book excerpt: In June 2018 the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza will be presenting a monographic exhibition devoted to Victor Vasarely (Pécs, 1906 - Paris, 1997), one of the principal exponents of Op Art. Comprising works from the Vasarely Museum in Budapest, the Victor Vasarely Museum in Pécs, the Fondation Vasarely in Aix-en- Provence and prominent loans from private collections, the exhibition will aim to offer an overall vision of the life and work of this Hungarian painter whose best output was created in France. The exhibition includes works from all the principal phases of Vasarely's career in order to present a chronological survey of his artistic evolution. Visitors will thus be able to appreciate the key role played by the artist in the development of geometrical post-war abstraction and to learn about the experiments based on his artistic principles and theoretical reflections which he undertook with the aim of bringing art and society closer together.--Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza website.

The scope is encyclopedic: half the work (originally the first volume) is devoted to painting; the other half to sculpture, new media, and photography. Chapters are arranged thematically, and each page displays several examples (in color) of work under discussion. The final section, a lexicon of artists, includes a small bandw photo of each artist, as well as biographical information and details of work, writings, and exhibitions. Ruhrberg and the three other authors are veteran art historians, curators, and writers, as is editor Walther. c. Book News Inc.

Download or read book From Point to Pixel written by Meredith Hoy and published by Dartmouth College Press. This book was released on 2017-01-03 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fiercely ambitious study, Meredith Anne Hoy seeks to reestablish the very definitions of digital art and aesthetics in art history. She begins by problematizing the notion of digital aesthetics, tracing the nineteenth- and twentieth-century movements that sought to break art down into its constituent elements, which in many ways predicted and paved the way for our acceptance of digital art. Through a series of case studies, Hoy questions the separation between analog and digital art and finds that while there may be sensual and experiential differences, they fall within the same technological categories. She also discusses computational art, in which the sole act of creation is the building of a self-generating algorithm. The medium isn't the message - what really matters is the degree to which the viewer can sense a creative hand in the art.
Download or read book Vasarely written by Jana Baumann and published by Verlag Fur Moderne Kunst. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Victor Vasarely's work extends across more than six decades, integrating an extremely broad range of styles and influences: Vasarely was a graphic designer and artist, a central figure in post-war French art with a Hungarian background and roots in the Bauhaus of the 1920s.In the Labyrinth of Modernism highlights Victor Vasarely, who is all too frequently reduced to his op art output and its bewildering impact on the senses, in his role as one of the central figures of modernism.With more than 100 works from European and US-American collections the publication reveals the mutual penetration between and influence of everyday life and art in his work and the continuous crossover between the pop and modernist aesthetics. In this way it enables the reader to encounter not only one of Europe's first exponents of pop art but also a new history of the modernist project as it extended throughout the twentieth century.English and German text.Accompanies the exhibition at Städel Museum, Frankfurt 26 September 2018 - 13 January 2019.

Download or read book Eye Attack written by Lærke Rydal Jørgensen and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the first major presentation of Op Art and Kinetic Art in Scandinavia for more than 50 years, Louisiana opens the door to a visual experimental laboratory with the whole range of media and techniques. 'Op Art' is an abbreviation of Optical Art and describes works which use ingeniously crafted optical illusions and effects that go straight to the core of our visual sensory apparatus. The movement had its inception in the middle of the 1950s and its glory days in the 1960s, when it established itself internationally across political and cultural contexts. The artists were preoccupied with science, the psychology of perception and the new technology of the time ? and turned their backs on old-fashioned storytelling and romantic sensitivity. While Kinetic and Optical Art originate from a particular time, the results are surprisingly timeless, and the movement has left striking marks in contemporary visual art and culture. The direct appeal to the senses is unabated ? and is effective today in a mixture of instant fascination and nostalgia.00With around 100 works and more than 40 artists, including Hungarian Victor Vasarely and English Bridget Riley in two of the main roles, the exhibition opens the door to a visual experimental laboratory with the whole range of media and techniques.00Exhibition: Louisiana Museum, Humlebaek, Denmark (04.02.-05.06.2016).

Download or read book Op Art written by Martina Weinhart and published by Walther Konig. This book was released on 2007 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Thus art is not an object, but an experience." This volume collects the work of a generation of international "op artists" who were fascinated by the physical laws of light and optics, visual phenomena and the principles of perception. Op art, also known as optical art, is a style of visual art that makes use of optical illusions. "Optical art is a method of painting concerning the interaction between illusion and picture plane, between understanding and seeing." Op art works are abstract, with many of the better known pieces made in only black and white. When the viewer looks at them, the impression is given of movement, hidden images, flashing and vibration, patterns, or alternatively, of swelling or warping.
