Victor Vasarely’s intricate paintings and sculptures were crucial to the Op art movement. His dynamic works combine geometric shapes with organic forms, creating mesmerizing optical illusions through monochrome or vibrant colors. Initially studying medicine at the University of Budapest, he shifted to visual arts, influenced by scientific principles and artists like Josef Albers and Wassily Kandinsky. Vasarely exhibited in major cities such as New York, Paris, and Budapest, with his works now in prestigious institutions like the Museum of Modern Art and the Centre Pompidou.
