About the artist:
Victor Vasarely: (1906-1997) A French painter of Hungarian origin, regarded as the father of optical art, i.e., op art. His works are in the world’s major museums, including: Hara Museum of Contemporary Art (Japan); Vasarely Foundation, Centre Pompidou (France); Walker Art Center, MOMA, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Guggenheim, New York (USA); Das Museum Folkwang (Germany); Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation (Portugal); Kröller-Müller Museum (Netherlands); Queensland Art Gallery (Australia); Nykytaiteen museo Kiasma (Finland); Horsens Kunstmuseum (Denmark); Peggy Guggenheim Collection (Italy); National Gallery of Scotland, Tate Collection (Great Britain); Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein (Liechtenstein); Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes (Argentina); Museum of Contemporary Art Skopje (FYROM); Henie Onstad Museum (Norway); Victor Vasarely Museum, Pécs (Hungary); Museo de Arte Contemporaneo, Caracas (Venezuela); Musée des Beaux-Arts, Montréal (Canada)...
About the work:
Victor Vasarely’s perfectionism imposes on him an absolute quality that could only be guaranteed at the time by the capabilities of Basel printers. Between 1971 and 1978, Editions du Griffon in Neuchâtel, Switzerland entrusted Victor Vasarely with the realization, distribution, and promotion of 19 albums and 12 serigraphs, gathering a survey of his work.
This is a unique edition taken from a special edition titled "Ondulatoires," conceived and supervised by Victor Vasarely himself, and, with the same care for quality, Editions du Griffon gave exceptional attention to these 1970s album series, identifiable by the copyright on the back of the prints.
