Offering a dazzling view of Vasarely's revolutionary artistic style, this work plays with the effects of light and dark as well as the use of geometric abstraction. Stemming from Vasarely's experiments with kinetic art from 1954 onwards, Supernovae is composed of interacting patterns that produce shifts in perception and fluctuations of the image in the eyes of the viewer. What results is a dazzling affect of black and white, positive and negative, and circles and squares which meld together in a coherent, yet chaotic composition that serves to lure in those who view it. Vasarely sought to exhaust the limits of the two dimensional plane, creating illusions of vibration by alternating geometric forms and adhering to a black and white palette. By definition, a 'supernovae' are stars which increase suddenly in great luminosity and then suddenly undergo various changes, including dramatic decreases in their own mass. This illusion is successfully translated with Vasarely's Supernovae which radiates its own luminosity and brilliance.
