Art One - Radial Symmetry - Vasarely

Below are examples of radial symmetry in art by artist Victor Vasarely.  


Victor Vasarely, was a Hungarian–French artist, who is widely accepted as a "grandfather" and leader of the op art movement. His work entitled Zebra, created in the 1930s, is considered by some to be one of the earliest examples of op art.

  1. I like the second picture. I like the color scheme and how just changing the shape of the circles makes a bigger circle come out.

  8. I like the first one. You cannot tell where one zebra overlaps on the other and it adds to the abstractness of the art.- Charles Upshaw

  9. I like the fourth one the most, the colors are different but compliment each other well and the illusion is clear and interesting.

  12. My favorite is the second one because the artist drew it to have the effect of the shape of a ball. However it is all just an illusion.
