Illusions: Abstract Art from the Permanent Collection
July 9 - September 26, 2010
In Illusions, colors vibrate, merge and create dimension, reviving the colorful Op art and geometric motifs of the 60's, 70's and 80's. Works from the museum's collection celebrate color theory and optical experimentation. Optical Art is a mathematically-themed form of abstract art. Repetition of simple forms and colors are used to create visual effects such as moiré patterns and an exaggerated sense of depth. Op art is always abstract, and the optical refers to optical illusion. In the 1960's, the term "Op Art" was coined to describe the work of a growing group of abstract painters. This movement was led by Victor Vasarely and Bridget Riley, and included such artists as Richard Anuszkiewicz, François Morellet and M.C. Escher. Quickly Op art became a motif in fabric design and interior design, but its popularity was limited and faded after a short time in the limelight.
Exhibiting
Artists from the permanent collection include: Burton Wasserman, Edna Andrade, Richard
Anuszkiewicz, Clarence Holbrook Carter, Tom Gaughan, Louis Stone, and Tom Norton
