From Rosenthal Studio : edition '77. Numbered and signed in the plate at the verso. // Zebra Ceramique by Victor Vasarely, created in 1977, is a ceramic sculpture that epitomizes the artist’s mastery of optical illusion through geometric design. This piece features a mesmerizing black-and-white pattern that forms the abstract image of two zebras’ heads intertwined, a recurring motif in Vasarely’s exploration of Op Art. The curved lines and alternating black and white stripes create a dynamic sense of movement, as if the forms are pulsating or shifting depending on the viewer's angle. The sculpture challenges perception, inviting viewers to engage with the interplay between shape and line. Measuring 35 x 31 cm, Zebra Ceramique exemplifies Vasarely’s ability to transform simple patterns into complex visual experiences, reinforcing his legacy as a pioneer in Op Art. This piece is part of a limited edition of 3,000, produced by Rosenthal Studio.

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.
