About the work:
The perfectionism of Victor Vasarely imposes an absolute standard of quality that only at that time the presses of Basel print shops could satisfy.
Thus, between 1971 and 1978, Editions du Griffon, in Neuchâtel, Switzerland, were entrusted by Victor Vasarely with the realization, distribution, and dissemination of 19 albums and 12 serigraphs, gathering the breadth of his works.
This unique print from a special edition entitled "Ondulatoires" which was imagined and supervised by Victor Vasarely himself, and it is with this same concern for quality that Editions du Griffon gave exceptional care to these series of albums printed in the 1970s, identifiable by the copyright on the back of the prints.
