Complete set of 10 serigraphs that come in pairs: one serigraph on paper and the other one on transparent plastic sheet (plexi). When position one above another they provide an optical game by superposition - Published by Editions du Griffon, Neuchatel, Switzerland - Framed size: 27 x 32 x 4 cm - Image size: 29 x 24 cm // The Cinetiques Portfolio by Victor Vasarely, created in 1973, is a set of 10 serigraphs that brilliantly encapsulates his exploration of optical art. Each artwork in this portfolio comprises two layers: a serigraph on paper and a transparent plastic sheet (plexi) with complementary designs. When layered, these elements create an interactive optical effect, with patterns appearing to shift and vibrate as the viewer’s perspective changes. Vasarely’s use of geometric shapes and precise lines generates dynamic, moiré-like effects, drawing the eye into an ever-shifting visual experience. Published by Editions du Griffon in Switzerland, this set exemplifies Vasarely’s innovative approach to perception, space, and movement. Each framed piece measures 27 x 32 x 4 cm, with an image size of 29 x 24 cm, and the superimposed layers provide an engaging optical game through their layered compositions.

What is kinetic art?
Kinetic art is an international movement that emerged in the 1920s and gained prominence in the 1960s, referring to art that involves both apparent and real motion. It encompasses any medium that includes movement, either relying on actual motion for its effect or being perceived as moving by the viewer. Early examples include canvas paintings designed to create optical illusions of movement. Today, kinetic art often refers to three-dimensional figures and sculptures, such as those operated by machines or those that move naturally. The movement covers a variety of styles and techniques that frequently overlap.
