VICTOR VASARELY
Victor Vasarely (Pécs, 9 April 1906 – Paris, 15 March 1997) was a Hungarian-born French painter and graphic designer. He was the founder of the Op art artistic movement, which developed in the ’60s and ’70s and, together with Bridget Riley, the main exponent. In 1927, after studying medicine for a couple of years at the University of Budapest, he decided to dedicate himself to art and in 1929 he enrolled at Mühely, a school founded by Alexandre Bortnyik which followed the principles of the Bauhaus of Dessau. In this period he became acquainted with Constructivism and abstract art. After leaving Hungary, in 1930 he settled in Paris, where he began working as a graphic designer. In the initial graphic period (1929-1946), the artist laid the foundations of his aesthetic research, exploring themes that he would take up again later. Between 1935 and 1947, he rediscovered painting and, particularly influenced by Cubism and Surrealism, concentrated on portraiture, still life and landscape.
