Victor Vasarely
Harlequin Sportif, Op Art Screenprint by Victor Vasarely

circa 1990

About the Item

Victor Vasarely's style is a unique take on the op art movement. Rather than only gear towards the solely geometric and abstract, he also often ventures into representation. Using colorful grids of circles and squares, Vasarely creates the illusion of a warped image on a flat surface. This piece depicts a person, named a harlequin in the title, walking diagonally upwards as if on a flight of stairs.

Born Győző Vásárhelyi on April 9, 1906 in Pécs, Hungary, he briefly studied medicine, but after two years he dedicated himself to learn academic painting. In the late 1920s, Vasarely enrolled at the Muhely Academy in Budapest, where the syllabus was largely based on Walter Gropius’s Bauhaus school in Germany. After settling in Paris in 1930, Vasarely worked in advertising agencies to support himself as a graphic artist while creating many works including Zebra (1937), which is considered by some to be one of the earliest examples of Op Art.
