About the Item

Peter Sedgley is a British *Op and *Kinetic artist, born in London. After no formal training he He began to paint in 1963, influenced by Bridget Riley, with whom in 1968 he set up S.P.A.C.E. (Space Provision, Artistic, Cultural and Educational), a scheme for providing studio space for young artists. In 1967 Sedgley began to incorporate lights in his work, for example in his ‘video-rotors’—painted rotating discs on which a variety of electronically programmed light patterns were played. From about 1970 he has experimented with combining sound with colour; often he works on a large scale, creating environments in which spectator movement triggers photoelectric cells, causing colours to change. Peter Sedley’s work has been excited and or acquired by The Tate Gallery, The Whitechapel Gallery and the Royal Academy and the Museum of Modern Art in New York when in the 1970s he was a key part of their ‘Responsive Eye’ show establishing him at the forefront of the OP Art Movement .
