Description from the seller

Magnificent Graphic Work by Fernando García Correa (Mexico, 1958) – Postminimalist Abstraction and Op-Art

2. Artistic Description and Analysis of the Piece
Created in 2003, this piece is a perfect example of García Correa's structural investigation. Through a meticulously executed linear grid on textured high-grade paper, the artist introduces subtle organic distortions and fluid undulations that break the mathematical rigidity.

The result is a vibrant lattice that generates a hypnotic optical effect (Op-Art), inviting the viewer to explore the tension between the order of the geometric system and the intervention of the human stroke. The piece features a pronounced perimeter imprint that enhances the artisanal and institutional quality of the stamping.
