Kezdi Ga 1970

Victor Vasarely made Kezdi Ga with all those cool blue and turquoise shapes! You can almost see the artist puzzling over each square, thinking about how to nudge it just so, to make the whole thing bulge and breathe. I imagine him moving them around like puzzle pieces, trying out different combinations. It’s neat how Vasarely used simple shapes, like circles and diamonds, to trick your eye into seeing something so complex. There's something kind of psychedelic about it, like a 60s album cover, but also super precise and mathematical. It makes me think about how artists are always playing with perception, trying to find new ways to make us see. And how, through this experimentation, they keep pushing painting forward.
