From Síntesis Series - Screenprint on plexiglas, chrome-plated steel - Signed and numbered on a label affixed to the reverse // Rafael Jesus Soto’s Permutacion is a mixed-media sculpture that continues the artist’s exploration of optical illusion and kinetic art. Part of the Síntesis series, the piece is composed of screen-printed Plexiglas and chrome-plated steel, creating a structured yet visually dynamic composition. The vertical lines, arranged symmetrically across the surface, produce a subtle sense of movement, engaging the viewer’s perception as they change position. A central black bar runs through the middle, creating a focal point that anchors the composition, while a small white square embedded within adds a contrasting element that disrupts the uniformity. The interaction of lines, light, and shadow gives the illusion that the artwork is in constant flux, a signature characteristic of Soto's work in kinetic and optical art. Signed and numbered on a label affixed to the reverse, Permutacion showcases Soto’s mastery in transforming static materials into dynamic visual experiences.

What is concrete art?
Artwork by Joseph Albers

What is concrete art?

Concrete Art is an art movement founded by the Dutch artist Theo van Doesburg in the 1930s. The movement emphasizes pure abstraction, focusing on geometric shapes and colors without any reference to the natural world or symbolic meaning. Unlike other forms of abstract art, Concrete Art is entirely non-representational and is based on mathematical principles and precise execution. It aims to create universal, timeless works by using simple, clear forms that emphasize objectivity and clarity.
