Victor Vasarely, VP-118 is a screen-print from 1972 that exemplifies his mastery of Op Art. The artwork features two distinct sections, both composed of patterns of circles and ellipses that create an illusion of depth and movement. In the upper section, a spherical form appears to bulge outward, its dark and light circles generating a three-dimensional effect. The lower section uses a similar pattern but inverts the perspective, creating a recessed, tunnel-like effect. The use of warm orange, yellow, and black tones contrasts sharply with the cooler gray backdrop, further enhancing the optical illusion. This hand-signed and numbered print demonstrates Vasarely's deep engagement with visual perception, geometry, and the manipulation of spatial depth through repetition and color. // Very good condition. Some even toning to the paper due to age. a few creases in the margin. Image is intact with strong colors. Printed on cardboard.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
