In the wide ambit of Op Art and Kinetic Art, the Hungarian naturalized French Victor Vasarely holds the role of protagonist. During his artistic career, Vasarely develops a language characterized by the most typical abstractionism, free of any lyricism and firmly bound to pure geometry, in compositions with a precise constructive layout of almost architectonic definition in their aspiration towards three-dimensionality, where the third dimension is represented by movement.
