Questions About Art Deco Victor
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2024How Victor Vasarely created his art varied. For his paintings, the Op artist typically used canvas as a base, painstakingly adding geometric forms in oil and acrylic paint. When producing sculptures, Vasarely often used lucite and glass to give his works a feeling of depth and luminosity. On 1stDibs, find a variety of Victor Vasarely art.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Victor Vasarely was an artist, working in painting, sculptures and collages. His vibrant, geometric pieces earned him the nickname of ‘grandfather’ of the Op Art movement. Shop a selection of Victor Vasarely’s pieces from some of the world’s top art dealers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024Here are some facts about Victor Vasarely's art. First, his work contributed to the development of Op art and consisted largely of eye-popping geometric abstractions that play with the viewer's perception of depth, perspective and motion. A classic example is the 1937 Zebra, which consists of undulating black and white stripes that suggest the form of the titular animal through optical trickery. The work is often credited as the earliest Op art painting. Vasarely wasn't just attempting to fool the eye; he wanted to "democratize" art by producing work in large editions at reasonable prices and with themes that were understandable across national and cultural boundaries. Also, Vasarely developed an alphabet plastique, or fine art alphabet, consisting of elementary visual building blocks that could be used in endless combinations to create original compositions. By employing this universal visual vocabulary and stripping away topical references, he sought to create what he called a "Planetary Folklore." On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Victor Vasarely art.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 13, 2024There are many examples of Op art by Victor Vasarely, who is widely considered the grandfather of this art movement.

The work is often credited as the earliest Op art painting. Other Op art works by Vasarely include Vega-Nor, The Chess Board, Vonal-Stri and Keple-Gestalt. Shop a range of Victor Vasarely art on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Victor Vasarely produced Op art by employing principles of physics and geometry. He painted his works by hand with oils and acrylics on canvas in a way that made the images seem three-dimensional and capable of movement. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Victor Vasarely art.

- What is the history of Art Deco?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 25, 2024The history of Art Deco begins in the early 20th century.
Art Deco emerged as a global design style around the start of World War I, during the last years of Art Nouveau's popularity. The style conjures visions of the Roaring Twenties, Machine Age metropolises, vast ocean liners, sleek typography and Prohibition-era hedonism. Its hallmarks include the use of geometric designs influenced by Cubism. Major discoveries of Egyptian tombs during the era also influenced the movement.
The term Art Deco derives from the name of a large decorative arts exhibition, the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes, held in Paris in 1925. After World War II, tastes shifted toward more functional, less ornate modernism, but today, the Art Deco style is still favored for its luxurious sophistication. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of vintage Art Deco furniture. - 1stDibs ExpertAugust 15, 2019
The main difference between Art Nouveau and Art Deco is that the former is detailed and ornate, and the latter is sharp and geometrical. When the movement started at the end of the 19th century, Art Nouveau was heavily influenced by nature and the curved lines of flowers. Art Deco, which became popular in the beginning of the 20th century, was inspired by the geometric abstraction of cubism.

Most Art Deco jewelry dates back to the 1920s and 30s and features defined lines and geometric motifs. While a lot of Art Deco rings were black and white — the black coming from the use of onyx or black enamel and the white from rock crystal and diamonds — there is plenty of color in jewelry of the era. A perfect accent to diamonds in platinum settings were blue sapphires, emeralds and rubies, and these stones were also used in combination with each other. On 1stDibs, find a variety of Art Deco rings.
