Victor Vasarely Aubusson Tapestry

About the Item

Victor Vasarely tapestry handwoven in 1971 at Atelier Tabard Freres in Aubusson France entitled "Dia - Argent". The artist's name and atelier monogram are woven in the lower center and 3 is woven on the reverse. Vasarely (1906-1997) was a Hungarian painter who is known for his Op(tical) art. His pieces are often depicted in contrasting colors and composed of clean-cut geometric forms. His style of monochromatic color fields or "color form" as he called it was very graphic and perfectly suited for tapestry. However only master weavers were capable of executing a total circle without producing the slightest deformation. "Circles as well as squares are Vasarely's specific design elements, bordering on the strict rules of mathematics," as his preferred weaver Tabard once said. Weaving had to be precise in both depiction of the circle form as well as the graduated color scheme.
