About the work:
Vasarely’s pursuit of perfection imposes an absolute standard of quality that only the presses of Basel printers could meet at that time. Thus, between 1971 and 1978, Editions du Griffon, in Neuchâtel, Switzerland, were entrusted by Victor Vasarely with the production, distribution, and dissemination of 19 albums and 12 serigraphs comprising the best of his works.
This unique print comes from a special edition titled "Ondulatoires" conceived and supervised by Victor Vasarely himself, and with the same commitment to quality Editions du Griffon gave exceptional care to these series of albums printed in the 1970s, identifiable by the copyright on the back of the impressions.
